Lua is spreading more and more throughout different areas of software,from embedded systems and mobile devices to the Web and the Internet of Things. Besides,it has a major role in the game industry,where knowledge of Lua has become an indisputable asset. Lua is the language of choice for anyone who needs a scripting language that is simple,efficient,extensible,portable,and free.
Programming in Lua is the official book about the language,providing a solid base to any programmer who wants to use Lua. Authored by Roberto Ierusalimschy,the chief architect of the language,it covers all aspects of Lua 5–from the basics to its API with C. The book is the main source of programming patterns for Lua,with numerous code examples that help the reader to make the most of Lua’s flexibility and powerful mechanisms. Programming in Lua is targeted at people with some programming background,but does not assume any prior knowledge about Lua or other scripting languages.
This Fourth Edition updates the book to Lua 5.3 and marks a complete reorganization of the text. Building on his many years of experience teaching Lua,Roberto has restructured the book to present the material in a growing order of complexity,allowing the reader to better absorb the character of the language.

Biography
Roberto Ierusalimschy is the leading architect of the Lua programming language,driving its development since its inception in 1993. He is an Associate Professor of Computer Science at PUC-Rio (the Pontifical Catholic University of Rio de Janeiro),where he works with programming-language design and implementation.
Roberto has a M.Sc. Degree and a D.Sc. Degree in Computer Science,both from PUC-Rio. He was a visiting researcher at the University of Waterloo,ICSI,GMD,and UIUC,and a Tinker Professor at Stanford. As a professor at PUC-Rio,Roberto was the advisor of several students that later became influential members of the Lua community. Roberto is also a Distinguished ACM Speaker and a member of the IFIP Working Group on Language Design.

Lua在不同的软件领域越来越多地传播，从嵌入式系统和移动设备到Web和物联网。此外，它在游戏行业中发挥着重要作用，其中Lua的知识已经成为无可争议的资产。 Lua是任何需要脚本语言，简单，高效，可扩展，便携和免费的人的首选语言。
Lua中的编程是关于语言的官方书籍，为任何想要使用Lua的程序员提供坚实的基础。由Roberto Ierusalimschy撰写，该语言的首席架构师涵盖了Lua 5的所有方面 – 从基础到其API的API。本书是Lua的编程模式的主要来源，其中包含许多代码示例，可帮助读者充分利用Lua的灵活性和强大的机制。 Lua中的编程针对的是具有一些编程背景的人，但并不认为有关Lua或其他脚本语言的任何知识。
这第四版将这本书更新为Lua 5.3，并标志着文本的完整重组。在他多年的Lua经验教训的基础上，罗伯托重组了这本书，以使材料呈现日益增长的复杂程度，让读者更好地吸收语言的特征。
