1 – Introduction

+ +

+Lua is an extension programming language designed to support +general procedural programming with data description +facilities. +It also offers good support for object-oriented programming, +functional programming, and data-driven programming. +Lua is intended to be used as a powerful, lightweight, +embeddable scripting language for any program that needs one. +Lua is implemented as a library, written in clean C, +the common subset of Standard C and C++. + + +

+Being an extension language, Lua has no notion of a "main" program: +it only works embedded in a host client, +called the embedding program or simply the host. +The host program can invoke functions to execute a piece of Lua code, +can write and read Lua variables, +and can register C functions to be called by Lua code. +Through the use of C functions, Lua can be augmented to cope with +a wide range of different domains, +thus creating customized programming languages sharing a syntactical framework. +The Lua distribution includes a sample host program called lua, +which uses the Lua library to offer a complete, standalone Lua interpreter, +for interactive or batch use. + + +

+Lua is free software, +and is provided as usual with no guarantees, +as stated in its license. +The implementation described in this manual is available +at Lua's official web site, www.lua.org. + + +

+Like any other reference manual, +this document is dry in places. +For a discussion of the decisions behind the design of Lua, +see the technical papers available at Lua's web site. +For a detailed introduction to programming in Lua, *** DIFF OUTPUT TRUNCATED AT 1000 LINES ***
