  <title>Small Embeddable Language with Simple Procedural Syntax</title>

  <description>Lua is a programming language originally designed for extending

applications, but also frequently used as a general-purpose,

stand-alone language.

​

Lua combines simple procedural syntax (similar to Pascal) with powerful

data description constructs based on associative arrays and extensible

semantics. Lua is dynamically typed, interpreted from byte codes, and

has automatic memory management, making it ideal for configuration,

scripting, and rapid prototyping. Lua is implemented as a small library

of C functions, written in ANSI C, and the implementation goals are

simplicity, efficiency, portability, and low embedding cost.
