Practical Lua 5 Programming
If you're into Lua programming, then this "Practical Lua 5 Programming" is a must-read. It's a hands-on book that'll help you get up and running quickly. It's got clear, step-by-step examples that'll walk you through everything from setting up your development environment to building dynamic web applications and embedding Lua in other programming languages. Every chapter starts with an essential concept and then gives you some practical exercises to help you learn it. You'll see how powerful Lua can be as you work through problems and get immediate results. You'll start with the basics, like installing Lua on Linux, writing your first script, and learning the core language features like variables, data types, tables, functions, and control structures. And it gets even better—you'll dive into advanced stuff like metatables, coroutines, and closures. This is where you'll learn how to make flexible, modular code. The book also covers important stuff like file handling, using LuaRocks to manage your packages, and creating your own custom modules. The book also takes you through web development using Lapis framework, demonstrating routing, template rendering, session management, and deploying applications. You'll also see how Lua can be embedded in JavaScript and Python applications, enabling you to leverage Lua's speed and efficiency in varied environments. Whether you're building scripts, web applications, or integrating Lua with other languages, this book gives you the tools and insights you need to get started confidently with Lua programming. Key Learnings Install and configure Lua on Linux for efficient scripting. Make use of Lua’s dynamic typing, tables, and control structures. Create and work around metatables, closures, and coroutines for modular code. Apply file I/O and data parsing to manage persistent data. Use LuaRocks to install, update, and manage custom modules. Build web apps with Lapis using routing and session management. Embed Lua in JavaScript and Python to boost performance. Integrate HTTP, JSON, and APIs for system data exchange. Implement middleware and session tracking for secure apps. Deploy Lua apps with configuration and performance monitoring.

Game Programming with Python, Lua, and Ruby
Get ready to dive headfirst into the world of programming! Game Programming with Python, Lua, and Ruby offers an in-depth look at these three flexible languages as they relate to creating games. No matter what your skill level as a programmer, this book provides the guidance you need. Each language is covered in its own section?you'll begin with the basics of syntax and style and then move on to more advanced topics. Follow along with each language or jump right to a specific section! Similar features in Python, Lua, and Ruby?including functions, string handling, data types, commenting, and arrays and strings?are examined. Learn how each language is used in popular game engines and projects, and jumpstart your programming expertise as you develop skills you'll use again and again!
