Key differences between C and Lua

Characteristic	C	Lua
Syntax	C has a syntax that is similar to other programming languages like Java and C++. It uses curly braces to define blocks of code and semicolons to end statements.	Lua has a simple and flexible syntax that is easy to learn. It uses keywords like 'if' and 'while' to define control structures and does not require semicolons to end statements.
Paradigm	C is a procedural programming language that focuses on writing functions that perform specific tasks.	Lua is a multi-paradigm language that supports procedural, functional, and object-oriented programming styles.
Typing	C is a statically typed language, which means that variable types must be declared before they are used.	Lua is a dynamically typed language, which means that variable types are determined at runtime.
Performance	C is a high-performance language that is often used for system-level programming and other tasks that require speed and efficiency.	Lua is a lightweight language that is designed for embedded systems and other environments where memory and processing power are limited.
Libraries and frameworks	C has a large number of libraries and frameworks available for a wide range of tasks, including system-level programming, graphics, and networking.	Lua has a smaller set of libraries and frameworks available, but they are often designed to be lightweight and efficient.
Community and support	C has a large and active community of developers, with many resources available for learning and troubleshooting.	Lua has a smaller but dedicated community of developers, with resources available through the Lua website and other online forums.
Learning curve	C has a steep learning curve, with a complex syntax and a focus on low-level programming concepts.	Lua has a relatively easy learning curve, with a simple syntax and a focus on high-level programming concepts.
