Computer Controlled Seed Analyzer Weird method?

Recently I found out about the Computer Controlled Seed Analyzer from agricraft where you get analyze and get stats of the seeds. My problem with it is that when ever you run the method called: "getSpecimenStats()" in lua mode, it's printing out 3 lines on the screen with the 3 different stats, or thats what it looks like.

Just as a example:
Stats of a seed:
- Growth: 1
- Gain: 2
- Strength: 3

Program run in lua:

m = peripheral.wrap("back")

-- Running directly
m.getSpecimenStats()
1
2
3

-- Saving it as a variable
stats = m.getSpecimenStats()
stats -- Btw this comes out as a number variable
1

How can i save all variables when its, not really returning them in a array or dictionary, but just kinda printing 3 lines.

Recommended method:

stats = { m.getSpecimenStats() }

stats[1] --# 1
stats[2] --# 2
stats[3] --# 3

Alternative method:

stat1, stat2, stat3 = m.getSpecimenStats()

stats1 --# 1
stats2 --# 2
stats3 --# 3

Thank you! Exactly what i was looking for :D/>
