Help with running a file in Lua

I downloaded the Lua interpreter from Lua Binaries Download (sourceforge.net) and downloaded https://sourceforge.net/projects/luabinaries/files/5.3.6/Tools%20Executables/lua-5.3.6\_Win64\_bin.zip/download, I watched this video on how to install it, (44) How to install and run Lua in Windows - YouTube, I tried the methods in the video, but they did not work. I created a new folder in Documents, then added a text document named main.lua, I typed print("hi") with Notepad, opened PowerShell typed "Lua53 main.lua," entered and received "C:\\Users\\Lina\\Downloads\\Lua\\lua53.exe: cannot open main.lua: No such file or directory." I opened Command Prompt, typed "cd (the address," and pressed enter, typed "lua53 main.lua," after I inputted it again, I had a similar result, "lua53: cannot open main.lua: No such file or directory." I have a Windows 10, 64x bit. I also noticed that the status of the file "main.lua," was still syncing with a blue circle arrow, I'm wondering if this might be the cause. I would appreciate any help with running files.

Module imports not working with LuaJit

I'm writing a module for a personal project in which I use Penlight, which is installed on a folder inside the project with `luarocks install --tree`, like so:

Project/
| modules/
| bin/
| lib/
| share/
// the usual
| src/
| init.lua
| etc

Inside src/ I have this noscript that requires Penlight, and a simple `local utils = require("pl.utils")` is suficient when running the noscript via `lua noscript.lua`. However when doing the same via luajit I got the following:

/?.lua;/home/linuxbrew/.linuxbrew/share/luajit-2.1/?.lua;/usr/local/share/lua/5.1/?.lua;/usr/local/share/lua/5.1/?/init.lua;/home/linuxbrew/.linuxbrew/share/lua/5.1/?.lua;/home/linuxbrew/.linuxbrew/share/lua/5.1/?/
init.lua
./?.so;/usr/local/lib/lua/5.1/?.so;/home/linuxbrew/.linuxbrew/lib/lua/5.1/?.so;/usr/local/lib/lua/5.1/loadall.so
luajit: src/dbclass.lua:3: module 'pl.pretty' not found:
no field package.preload['pl.pretty']

I thought "okay, I just need to change path and cpath then" and put:

local version = _VERSION:match("%d+%.%d+")

package.path = f(
"../modules/share/lua/%s/?/?.lua;modules/share/lua/%s/?/init.lua;../modules/share/lua/%s/?.lua;%s", version, version, version, package.path)
package.cpath = f("../modules/lib/lua/%s/?.so;modules/lib/lua/%s/?/?.so;%s", version, version, package.path)

Which worked to recognize the path here Penlight was installed, but now I got an error I'm unfamiliar with and didn't manage to find much help while searching:

luajit: error loading module 'pl.pretty' from file 'modules/share/lua/5.1/pl/init.lua':
modules/share/lua/5.1/pl/init.lua: invalid ELF header

I'll be grateful for any assistance in that regard, I'm yet unfamiliar with ELF libraries, linking and C-related things, so I got a bit lost there.

What is the diff between "hello"[1] and ("hello")[1]?

With the following code, I have two questions.

1. Why does it need a parenthesis around "hello"?
2. Why does it return nil for the second case?

​

$ lua -e 'local a = "hello"1; print(tostring(a))'
lua: (command line):1: unexpected symbol near ''

$ lua -e 'local a = ("hello")[1; print(tostring(a))'
nil
