Thoughts on animation scripting language

[Michael Heidemann]

I just had a quick look at the lua language documentation.
As I am not familar with java or c language it would help a lot to have a sample line for each function/method. Also some results of functions are unclear to me. For example:

Code:

get
Get returns x,y and z in one go.
This function has no additional parameters.

How is the notation of functions that returns something?
In this special case: what is returned? - a string - a vector??

Maybe i am stupid. Hopefully these are good questions
