Loaded library on stack

["King, Mike" <MKing@...>]

I’m new to Lua.  I’m in the process of embedding Lua within an application I wrote.  The only question I have at the moment is when I load a library the table is left on the stack, is it okay to pop it off?  All the example code I’ve seen never do this.  Isn’t the stack space limited?

 

luaopen_base(L);             /* opens the basic library */

luaopen_table(L);            /* opens the table library */

luaopen_io(L);               /* opens the I/O library */

luaopen_string(L);           /* opens the string lib. */

luaopen_math(L);             /* opens the math lib. */
