Indexing Tables

Anyone could give me an idea how to index several tables using subscripts?

I have something like this:

  1. local table1 = {item1, item2, … etc}
  2. local table2 = {}
  3. local table3 = {}
    etc
  4. for i = 1, 3
  5. for j = 1, #table … i do
  6. print(table… i … [j])
  7. end
  8. end

I get errors in statements 5) and 6).

Is it even possible to do something like this?

Try this:

[code]
local table = {}
table[1] = {“table1item1”, “table1item2”, “table1item3”}
table[2] = {“table2item1”, “table2item2”, “table2item3”}
table[3] = {“table3item1”, “table3item2”, “table3item3”}

for i = 1, #table do
for j = 1, #table[i] do
print(table[i][j])
end
end
