getmetatable

Returns the metatable of a table - this is whatever has been set with setmetatable. Some keys in this metatable will (if they exist) be called when certain operators are used - see the Lua Users wiki. However if the metatable contains the __metatable key the value of it will be returned instead. If there is no metatable nil is returned.
