Another occurrence of "executable table defs" ;-)
Always more than one way to do anything...
local init -- to make sure the function is visible within itself
function init(val)
local t = {}
setfenv(init,t)
-- we're now writing directly to t, and t's fields are available on
the RHS
x = val
y = x+10
z = x+y
return t
end
local t = init(10)
print(t.x,t.y,t.z)
=>
10 20 30
OK, a little awkward, and in fact Lua 5.2's with..do will do this more
elegantly. But it does show the principle
