I agree with you, I don't like Lua either. I especially don't understand why it's so good for embedding, and how people haven't implemented a subset of the project's original language as a scripting language, so that they don't have to write two very different syntaxes (and programming paradigms).
- Taywee 3y agoImplementing a subset of C or C++ as a scripting language is actually a lot of work, and is not fun to actually script in.
- npteljes 3y agoI have a hard time imagining that. PHP for example is fun to script in, and resembles a C/C++ more than Lua does. Of course fun is subjective, and I have no idea about the issues of embedding (why Lua works for that, and why other languages haven't got more traction).
