Lua is a small scripting / programming language.
It is designed to be very embeddable, and this is the number one use case for Lua. Lua is used as the configuration, plug-in or scripting language for many game engines, text editors and 3D design software.
An interesting part of Lua is the fact that it uses 1-based indexing rather than the more common 0-based indexing.
