Has Lua got threads?
Yes and no, depending on the meaning of ‘threads’. If you mean multitasking with OS threads, the answer is no, but Lua has coroutines which allow cooperative multitasking. A coroutine is a function which may yield at any point and may be resumed later. While it is yielded, it keeps its state, no matter how deep the call stack.
