I'm looking for good websites for LUA tutorials. I found a few, but they seem incomplete. At least one lists several commands, for instance, without links to a webpage. I also do not understand what compiler I would need. It seems like a Python interpreter would do the job.

It's Lua, not LUA.

Lua is an interpreted language, not a compiled one. You use the Lua interpreter.

The Python interpreter would be the right choice if you were trying to write Python code instead of Lua code.
