local subMaps = {["Map Name"] = {["SubMap Name"] = {{105, 51, 167, 91}, {137, 92, 167, 103}, {122, 97, 127, 99}, {128, 99, 136, 102}}}} --each table is (minX, minY, maxX, maxY)

local rect = subMaps["Map Name"]["SubMap Name"]

if rect then
for i,v in ipairs(rect) do
print(unpack(rect[i]))
end
end


The above code prints this:



105 51 167 91

137 92 167 103

122 97 127 99

128 99 136 102



How can I take each of those 4 tables and use them in my function getNearestCell(minX, minY, maxX, maxY)?

          if (rect) then
          for i,v in ipairs(rect) do
          local cell = getNearestCell(unpack(v));
          print(tostring(cell),type(cell));
          end
          end


          Your code is correct, just need to replace the print call with your function.



          Also you do not need to access rect in your loop (rect[i]) v already holds your table.

            if (rect) then
            for i,v in ipairs(rect) do
            local cell = getNearestCell(unpack(v));
            print(tostring(cell),type(cell));
