Re: Best and Worst of Lua

[Asko Kauppi <askok@...>]

Refreshingly light message for a while!!!  :)

1. Lua is best for embedded cases where string handling etc. in C  
would _really_ suck.
Lua is best for quick days when things need to be done to work (with  
as few lines as possible)

2. Lua is bad (if ever) for military/space/medical programs, where  
you'd actually want to wear a straightjacket.  Use a strongly typed  
language (C# gets my favor) instead.

ps. Lua is written as Lua.  LUA is a Microsoft term (among others)
