Dear all,

The problem is solved by using the namespace of lua as below:
I am not sure what I did is the right way.
If it is not the right way, please let me know.

Thanks for reading.

Best regards,

Sunday afternoon educational moment (that you can wikify), four variants:

1 : A more metafunish alternative of your example.
2 : The same but avoiding a temporary variable.
3 : Less code and clutter, the real deal.
4 : Idem, but permits more tuning at the TeX end.

\unexpanded\def\MyWhatever#1#2#3%
  {$\displaystyle{#1\choose #2} = #3$}

\startluacode
local function fact(n)
    if n <= 0 then
        return 1
    else
        return n * fact(n - 1)
    end
end

local function whatever(n,r)
   return fact(n) / (fact(r) * fact(n-r))
end

MP.WhateverA = whatever

function MP.WhateverB(n,r)
   mp.quoted("%.0f",whatever(n,r))
end

function MP.WhateverC(n,r)
mp.quoted([[$\displaystyle{%.0f\choose %.0f} = %.0f$]],n,r,whatever(n,r))
end

function MP.WhateverD(n,r)
   mp.quoted([[\MyWhatever{%.0f}{%.0f}{%.0f}]],n,r,whatever(n,r))
end
