cannot find -llua ....... embedding c++ with Lua...

[knowledge_Seeker1]

I am trying to embed C++ with Lua.

I downloaded the lua-5.2.0 and named the folder /lua-5.2.0/

In order to install it, I switched to the /lua-5.2.0/ in the Terminal and Ran the following comand:

...../lua-5.2.0$ make linux test

This folder has a /src/ folder

I created a simple clua.cpp code inside the src folder

PS:i copied pasted the code from the internet

the clua.cpp file has the following code:

extern "C" {
   #include <stdio.h>

#include "lua.h"
#include "lualib.h"
#include "lauxlib.h"  /* the Lua interpreter */
#include <stdlib.h>
}

int
main(void)
{
    int status, result, i;
    double sum;
    lua_State *L;

    /*
     * All Lua contexts are held in this structure. We work with it almost
     * all the time.
     */
    L = luaL_newstate();

    luaL_openlibs(L); /* Load Lua libraries */

    /* Load the file containing the script we are going to run */
    status = luaL_loadfile(L, "script.lua");
    if (status) {
        /* If something went wrong, error message is at the top of */
        /* the stack */
        fprintf(stderr, "Couldn't load file: %s\n", lua_tostring(L, -1));
      exit(1);
    }
}

When I ran the following command to run the program,

g++ clua.cpp -o output -llua

I get the following error

/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -llua
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status

I am a LUA newbie and i have been getting headaches since early morning because i have googled this problem and

cant seem to fix this error !
