I just worked through the triangles practice problem, while working through Lua Concepts boolean: https://exercism.org/tracks/lua/exercises/triangle
This exercise necessitates the use of the
error()keyword, something which wasn't mentioned before. I personally suggest adding a hint for this, as newer programers might not even be aware that something like this could exist if they come from a language where errors are values.Edit: https://forum.exercism.org/t/mentioning-of-the-error-keyword/12686
