lua-coroutines

Lua coroutines enable cooperative multitasking with explicit yield/resume, supporting generators, iterators, and async patterns.

• Functions that suspend and resume execution.
• First-class values with own state and stack.
• Support for generators, iterators, and state machines.
• Alternative to threads for async control flow.

• Explicit yield and resume for control transfer.
• Maintains local variables and execution state.
• Supports value passing between calls.
• Enables lazy evaluation and infinite sequences.
• Simplifies async I/O and producer-consumer patterns.
• Handles errors gracefully without crashing.
• Can be nested and used in state machines.
• Supports bidirectional communication.

1. 1.Create coroutine with coroutine.create(func).
2. 2.Resume with coroutine.resume(co, [value]).
3. 3.Use coroutine.yield() to pause and pass values.
4. 4.Wrap functions with coroutine.wrap() for simpler interface.
5. 5.Use in generators, iterators, or state machines.
6. 6.Handle errors with error checking and status checks.
