It seems that there is a possibility to make next step in that direction:
to merge Lua tables and Lua functions in a single data structure.
You may have noticed that there is a similarity between how we
construct an array and how we define a function:
arr = {11; 22; 33}
function func() local x=42; x=x*x; return x; end
you could have this data structure right now, in pure Lua!
```
local insert = table.insert
local func = {}
insert(func, function() func.x = 42 end)
insert(func, function() func.x = func.x * func.x end)
insert(func, function() return func.x end)
setmetatable(func,
{ __call = function(tab)
for i = 1, #tab - 1 do
tab[i]()
end
return tab[#tab]()
end})
func()
```
I'm not sure what you plan to do with it, but, there it is.
