print("To start off programming, and test simple scripts, I recommend using the 'lua' command in the Craft-OS, which will open the interactive lua prompt. First off, you will learn the simple commands to put text on the screen, using print() and write(). Inside the brackets you can put almost any variable type, such as an integer(A number), a float(A decimal number), a string(Some text) or a boolean(True/False). You can also leave the brackets empty, to print nothing. The difference between the print() and write() is that after the print command, it will skip to the next line, whereas the write command won't.")

print("Note that the write command can't really be tested in the lua prompt. To exit the lua prompt, type 'exit()'. Next you'll assign some variables various values, perform calculations on them, and print them. To make a variable enter the following: ")

print("You can also change the value of a variable the same way as you first created it.")
