Tricks could be used to shorten this, particularly in the interactive REPL, where <code>-_</code> would be enough (i.e., attempt to perform arithmetic on a nil global). This instead focuses on the "be useful elsewhere" aspect of the task, because it's short-enough as-is:

<lang lua>error(1)</lang>

{{out}}

<pre>1

stack traceback:

[C]: in function 'error'

stdin:1: in main chunk

[C]: in ?</pre>
