Toribash Scripting Tutorial

Programming Basics

So here begins your journey into how to create some simple programs. We will first start out by saying how Toribash runs the script file. If we take the example in the last tutorial:

echo("Hello!")
result = 4+4
echo("4 + 4 is " .. result)

How does the text become a program?

Toribash Scripting Tutorial

What is this tutorial about?

This tutorial is about using and creating 'scripts' in Toribash. In this first tutorial I will be covering what scripts are, how to use them, how they are made and what tools you will need to make them.

There is a very simple exercise at the end of the tutorial that will test what you have learned.

The proceeding tutorials will then go into detail about how to make scripts, including going over the basics of programming.

These tutorials are created for people with no experience in programming, but are also recommended for people who know programming but are not sure in how to create scripts specifically for Toribash
