retrieving table data

[guisalum]

I'd like to retrive data from a table but instead of using the exact word I'd like to use a variable.

For example

variableSon = "sons"

local table = {mother = "mom", sons = {first = "jack", middle = "John", last = "Jonathan"}}

So intead of using table.sons.first I want to use the variable

example

table.variableSon.first

Is it possible?

 

[chojrak]

local var = "sons"
local table = {
	["sons"] = {first = "jack", second = "alan"},
	mother = "Mom"
}

print (unpack ( table[var] ) )

 

[Zonet]

local var = "sons"
local table = {
	["sons"] = {first = "jack", second = "alan"},
	mother = "Mom"
}

print (unpack ( table[var] ) )

php -> define("alan", "chojrak");
Better?
