We will often need to do math while scripting. Lua supports all the basic mathematical operations. For example, if we want to print the result of adding two numbers, all we have to do is:

 > print(7 + 3)
 10

We print all kinds of operations:

 > print(10 + 5)
 15
 > print(10 - 5)
 5
 > print(10 * 5)
 50
 > print(10 / 5)
 2

We can also perform math on numbers stored in variables.

 > myNumber = 5
 > print(myNumber + 2)
 7

We can even store the result of operations into a variable:

 > sum = 25 + 8
 > print(sum)
 33

In the [[Scripting 2|next tutorial]] we will cover how to change the properties of parts through code.
