gollark: ```To keep with the tradition, our first program in Lua just prints "Hello World": print("Hello World")If you are using the stand-alone Lua interpreter, all you have to do to run your first program is to call the interpreter (usually named lua) with the name of the text file that contains your program. For instance, if you write the above program in a file hello.lua, the following command should run it: prompt> lua hello.lua```What's the problem here?
