This problem [here] is a tutorial for beginners. I am using this to practise my LUA skills.

You can submit the solution to SPOJ in LUA programming language.

Almost every decent programmers will know the solution in seconds. The answer is A+B. It will be 3 lines of code for most programming languages, but for LUA, there is no string splitting function inbuilt for use, so you have to come up one. Split the string into two numbers and add them, how simple is that!

function split(s, delimiter)
    result = {};
    for match in (s..delimiter):gmatch("(.-)"..delimiter) do
        table.insert(result, match);
    end
    return result;
end
 
a = split(io.read(), ' ')
print(tonumber(a[1]) + tonumber(a[2]))

function split(s, delimiter)
    result = {};
    for match in (s..delimiter):gmatch("(.-)"..delimiter) do
        table.insert(result, match);
    end
    return result;
end

a = split(io.read(), ' ')
print(tonumber(a[1]) + tonumber(a[2]))
