Why is this not sorting the table?
lost = {1,6,0,8,2,5}
table.sort(lost, function(a, b)
return lost[a] < lost[b]
end)
for i, v in pairs(lost) do
print(i, v)
end

You have interpreted wrong how table.sort works. The values passed to the functions are not the indices, but in fact, the values! (That is, lost[a] will be a, and lost[b] is b).
What you mean is:
lost = {1,6,0,8,2,5}
table.sort(lost, function(a, b)
return a < b
end)
for i, v in pairs(lost) do
print(i, v)
end
