Multi Dimensional Tables

[Cassandra]

Is it possible to create multi dimensional tables on LUA? If yes, can you provide me an example creation?

I'm not sure if this is what do you mean:

items = 
    { 
        { 
            [ "category" ] = "Weapons", 
            [ "name" ] = "M4", 
            [ "price" ] = 1000, 
            [ "quantity" ] = 500  
        }, 
         
        { 
            [ "category" ] = "Skills", 
            [ "name" ] = "M4 Skill", 
            [ "price" ] = 2000, 
            [ "quantity" ] = 1000 
        } 
    }

This?

local cTable = 
    { 
        instance =  
            { 
                [1] = 'Crazy'; 
            } 
    } 
     
outputChatBox ( cTable.instance[1] ) 

Basically, is what Solidsnake said

            [ "price" ] = 2000, 
            [ "quantity" ] = 1000 
        } 
    } 

That's singular dimension. I want something like this.

  
local items =  
{ 
    { 
        name = "Something" 
        weight = 20 
        height = 20 
    }, 
    { 
        playerid = 0 
    } 
} 
  
items[name][1] = "something" 
-- The first dimension is the info, the second dimension is the playerid

Both the codes wrong.

  
local t =  
{ 
    tSecond = 
    { 
        nValue = 1; 
    } 
} 
  
print( t.tSecond.nValue ) --1 
------- or -------------------------  
print( t['tSecond']['nValue'] ) -- 1 -- 
------- or ------------------------- 
print( t.tSecond['nValue'] ) -- 1  -- 
------- or -------------------------  --  Some codes  
print( t['tSecond'].nValue ) -- 1

print( t['tSecond']['nValue'] ) -- 1 -- 
------- or ------------------------- 
print( t.tSecond['nValue'] ) -- 1  -- 
------- or -------------------------  --  Some codes  
print( t['tSecond'].nValue ) -- 1 
  

Thanks but I have already found a way.

No problem.
