Summary description:  Plotting graphs using Lua

Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
 
 The luaplot package is developed using Lua to plot graphs of
 real-valued functions of a real variable in LaTeX.
 It is developed with the MetaPost system and luamplib and
 luacode packages. It provides an easy way for plotting graphs
 of standard mathematical functions.
 There is no particular environment in the package for plotting
 graphs. It also works inside floating environments of LaTeX
 like tables and figures. The compilation time to plot several
 graphs in LaTeX using the luaplot package is significantly
 less with LuaLaTeX engine.

 The package is based on the core idea of loading mathematical
 functions inside Lua and determining plot points using different
 methods available in Lua. After determining plot points in Lua,
 two different approaches are used:
   - pass plot points to the MetaPost system via luampblib.
   - pass plot points to the TikZ package.
