Tutorials?

Hi,I'm not sure if this is the right place to put this so move it if it isn't. I am new to ComputerCraft. Not exactly new, but haven't done much lua programming before. I know some stuff like print() write() term API and colors API but not much else. So I was going to ask if anyone knows some simple tutorials for a beginner. Thank you.

Do as Lyqyd said and check out the tutorial forum, Then you should check out the APIs on the wiki and just mess around with the most of it until you get a hang of it.
Also check out this http://www.lua.org/manual/5.1/manual.html

I wrote a tutorial on Lua Basics -- Variable Scope, Code Blocks and Control Structures. If you finish that tutorial, you will have a good concept on how to begin coding in Lua. There are code samples and a fairly decent coverage of the most important aspects of basic Lua. In addition, there are references to other tutorials which you may find helpful.
