@CozyPlanes Lua is great for extending C/C++ programs. Apart from that it has little use.
Still, it's a great read, offering many interesting concepts. Like functions return more than one value.
Btw. In my copy of the Lua book, it is "arrays".
Didn't know they were renamed. -
@Yamakuzure Take a look in that section, it should say that arrays are implemented as tables with an integer key.
They have a section called arrays for people who are looking for them. -
@AlgoRythm I am at home now, and realize that I got "Beginning Lua Programming", written by Kurt Jung and Aaron Brown from 2007.
And chapter 4 is "Working with Tables"
Wow!
4.4 is "Tables as Arrays"
My memory totally failed me here! 🤔 -
@Yamakuzure I'm excited for my book. Should get it tomorrow.
I sort of wanna specialize in Lua. Since not many people seem to, it may be a coveted skill.
Algo the Lua man.
