Sets the ''metatable'' for the given table. (table) = setmetatable(table,metatable)

Returns the metatable of the given object. *if ''object'' does not have a metatable, returns nil.

Creates a blank userdata, with the option for it to have a metatable. '''addMetatable''': (bool) add a metatable ('''default''' = false)<br/>

One way to use typeof is to define a metatable type using setmetatable inside the typeof function:

...library provides all its functions inside the table string. It also sets a metatable for strings where the __index field points to the string table. Therefore,

lua_setmetatable(L, -2); // set itself as metatable

lua_setmetatable(L, -2); // set itself as metatable

...its API design. Each instance created by Gideros API is a Lua table with a metatable attached.

...allows generation of CPU code that is multiple times faster than a generic metatable call. Luau now copes better with cyclic metatable types (it gives a type error rather than hanging).
