Welcome back to programming with Lua, this video is, Define Variables in Lua Programming, Defining Variables in Lua, Create a Variable in Lua Codecademy. Make sure to watch this programming Lua course from the beginning if you are new to programming. Learning to program in Lua begins with learning the syntax of the language. Variables allow us to store a value in a labeled container that we can later retrieve and do stuff with. In this lesson, we learn how to define variables in Lua, and we do that by creating a name for our variable and then using “=” equal sign to assign that variable a value. We then are able to access the value in our variable by using the variable name. Practice creating Variables in Lua until you understand how they work. Once you are ready to continue on to our next Lua Programming lesson, I will see you there! Thanks for watching Define Variables in Lua Programming, Defining Variables in Lua, Create a Variable in Lua Codecademy.
