🛠 Error Handling in Lua: The Idiomatic Way

Lua is known for being lightweight, embeddable, and flexible—and its approach to error handling is no different. Whether you're writing a game script, a plugin, or a CLI tool, understanding how Lua handles errors is essential for writing clean, maintainable code.

In this article, we'll explore:

• The basic mechanisms of error handling in Lua
• When to use error() vs returning nil, err
• Best practices for writing robust functions and libraries

1. Geographic Coordinates

The most recognized method to pinpoint a location. It uses:

• Latitude (lat): Specifies how far north or south a point is from the Equator.
• Longitude (lon): Details how far east or west a point is from the Prime Meridian.

2. Cartesian Coordinates

Often employed in computer graphics and mathematics:

• 2D Cartesian:
  • x: Represents the horizontal axis (often east-west direction).
• y: Represents the vertical axis (often north-south direction).
