Hi Holly
BTW, I think when Roberto was saying Lua is not good for numeric
computations he probably meant in comparison to C and Fortran in the
context of super-computing. To my knowledge Lua does not have a
quality issue in terms of math but being dynamically typed it will
have a quantity penalty, compared to statically typed languages.
