Lua is....

Post by Ice »

Hi i'm not able to check out lua language at the moment but i want to know what kinda language it is?
I had a few moments to check it and i think its a pascal like language. Im right or its my first big mistake on these forums? :D

I know PHP and PAWN that are scripting language's (Just like lua is) so i'm at home with slight learning curve or i have long way to go?

no but its intended as a light weight script language which is easy to learn. There are some cases where you need the brackets.
