#7. Installing programs.

In the terminal, type lua. It should spit out "command not found". Now do sudo apt-get install lua5.2. It will say lots and eventually let you type again. Lua has now been installed. If you type lua again, it will bring you into a lua prompt. Press ctrl+C to exit.

commandA

Here is what happened:

sudo: give you admin privelages for the fake computer. apt-get: this is the package manager. install: this is a package manager command for install new package. lua5.2: the package to install

Now you can also write a lua script and run it using this command: commandB

Now you can just write 'lua' and then the name of your file to run it.
