I'm not xD, I'm making jokes out of the metaphor, not in any way meant to be undermining it...

Well its hard for me to tell whether you actually understand what I'm saying if you're making jokes. Tongue

Nothing I say can be taken seriously. Ever. <3

Java is both compiled then interpited the .java is compiled to .class whips interpited.

Lua succeeds as a scripting language, and java is the confused teenage lovechild of C++ and... I don't even know. Where the hell did the whole obese VM come into play?
[RELATIVE] GO LUA?!??!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!!?
I haven't tried it out, but it sounds like it just turns everything into duck-typed objects, including functions objects etc. This can be useful, but slooooow ;_;
In conclusion:
WRITE IN C,
WRITE IN C,
WRITE IN C,
WRITE IN C,
...

I started in C and went to java when I started code my mod. And you can use C in java.

You... you don't understand the mechanics of either language, do you? Or are you talking about loading in compiled libraries into the JVM?


RE: Java vs Lua - Chibill - 07-22-2013

No I am talking about using the ability in Java to run extranal C code as part of it. And I know how to do a lot in C but programs with windows is not one of them.


RE: Java vs Lua - redstonewarrior - 07-22-2013

I'm going to correct, for the sake of being annoying, that you're only using machine code when you do that. You can, as you put it, also run external java code "in" (from) C. Learn gtk!

Just use python for all things where speed to code matters,
C where speed of code matters.
