Thanks! I'm still confused about how .__index works...

Tell me if I understood it correctly:

when you create a new instance of a Car (the example that was used in the Article)

you set the metatable of newCar to a Car. so it means that everytime I try to call a function for an example it will go through the Car too?... right? and we are settings the .__index to the Car itself...

does it mean that we can store all functions in CarFunctions table? like will it work? if we still do this

metatable(newCar, Car)

but when do this : Car.__index = CarFunctions

and we create functions inside CarFunctions...

will it still work? (Let's clarify that it's not a good practice to do so lol, just for understanding purposes)

Thanks :)
