getconstant(target: function | integer, index: number | integer): any | nil

Aliases debug.getconstant

Name	Type	Description
`target`	`function \| integer`	Function, stack level, or prototype to inspect.
`index`	`number \| integer`	One-based index inside constants, protos, upvalues, or stack slots.

Name	Type	Description
`constant`	`any \| nil`	Constant value at the requested index, or nil when it is missing.

Reads a constant from a function, stack level, or prototype by one-based index.

Call it with 2 parameter(s): target, index. The argument table explains which values are required and which ones only refine the behavior.

It returns constant (any | nil). Use the returns table to separate successful values from nil results and recoverable errors.

Example call with placeholder values.

local result = getconstant(1, 1)
print(result)
