The Editor

    The use of an Editor is completely up to you. If you've never used one before for programming. I suggest starting with plain old, Microsoft's Notepad.exe. Heck, you already have it!  When you've had enough of wasting your time trying to fix miss-spellings, then you should think about an Editor.

    I started using LuaEdit.  I kept having problems with it deleting my whole directory. No more, thanks.  In the Lua for Beginners website, there's a page called Different Editors. That's where I found Notepad++.

    The down side to choosing your editor is I can't help you with it.

    The upside to choosing an editor it will help you catch errors before running the program.

 

    Are you ready to start playing with some code?
