LuaRocks is a package manager for the Lua programming language that provides a standard format for distributing Lua modules (in a self-contained format called a "rock"), a tool designed to easily manage the installation of rocks, and a server for distributing them. While not included with the Lua distribution, it has been called the "de facto ...
Lutro is a Lua game framework for libretro, a partial port of the LÖVE [40] API. ChaiLove follows a similar path by offering an implementation in ChaiScript, an embedded and cross-platform scripting language for C++ (C++14). [41] love.js is a port of LÖVE that aims to make it possible to run LÖVE games on the web via HTML5, WebGL, and ...

So, much of what these books explain about Lua standard library functions and variables that come with the language is either irrelevant or untrue here. The original API specification — the Lua standard library functions and variables that are supposed to be available in modules — is given at MW:Extension:Scribunto/API specification ...
This program creates a Lua state, passes the Lua state to IUPLua for initialization, and then opens and executes a Lua script against the Lua state. Or, the entire IUP state can be dynamically loaded via use of a Lua require or package.loadlib of IUPLua. The script(s) can later be compiled with the Lua compiler if needed.
Lua patterns deliberately lack the most complex regular expression constructs (to avoid bloating the Lua code base), where many other computer languages or libraries use a more complete set. Lua patterns are not even a subset of regular expressions, as there are also discrepancies, like Lua using the escape character % instead of \,, and ...
Libraries are tables. string.gmatch is the "gmatch" entry in the table named by the global variable string. Arguments that you receive from MediaWiki are tables. But they're a bit special. Arrays are tables that follow a specific convention.
