There was a problem hiding this comment.
the test was written in a way that it validates that whatever EditLine does (the val variable), matches the standard Lua behaviour (the exp variable).
I think we should retain this behaviour. So the test is right, but the implementation is not in this case.

Thanks for the review. You were completely right about retaining that test. I reverted the test back to the exp == val logic and removed the pending status. To make it pass, I updated the sub_char implementation so it properly clamps the indices and returns an empty string only when the start exceeds the end or the length. It now perfectly mimics Lua's native string.sub behavior. Please let me know if you’d like any further refinements. |

Replaces the pending test for sub_char out-of-bounds behavior.
Instead of returning an empty string, it now follows Lua’s string.sub behavior by resolving indices to the nearest valid position.
Updated the test accordingly and removed the pending block. All tests pass.
