Re: OT complied language most like Lua?

[Kurt Nordstrom <doseofvitamink@...>]

It's going to be hard to find the dynamicness of a language like Lua in a compiled, low-level language like C.

FWIW, though, pretty much anywhere you can run ANSI C, you can run Lua.  And the C-to-Lua interface is the easiest I've ever seen.

I can program in a few dynamic languages but the only compiled one I know is C.

C is perfect in several ways, it can run on "bare metal", it's small and fast but I can't transfer several useful concepts from Lua back to C. Simple code like this seems problematic to me in C:
SomeTable= {Lua = "fun", a = 1, b = 2, c = 1 + 2}

Is there another complied language that is similar to Lua?

Thanks for reading-Patrick
