Why not just use LUA?
- dboreham 3y agoBecause: weird language?
- dgellow 3y agoLove Lua, but damn I hate the 1-based index so much, it is such a pain to adapt to it and a source of bug when implementing algorithms…
- andrewstuart 3y agoI know nothing about lua but I could never touch a 1 based language. Lua - an entire language that’s an off by one error.
- TheLoafOfBread 3y agoThe thing is that LUA is here for quite some time and will be here when Microsoft will ends support for this experiment and it will get slowly depreciated and forgotten.
- Benjamin_Dobell 3y agoBecause of compile-time type safety / static analysis. And I say this as the author of an IDE that bolts those features onto Lua: https://github.com/Benjamin-Dobell/IntelliJ-Luanalysis https://github.com/Benjamin-Dobell/IntelliJ-Luanalysis
