Key differences between Groovy and Lua

Characteristic	Groovy	Lua
Syntax	Groovy has a syntax similar to Java, with additional features such as closures and dynamic typing.	Lua has a simple and lightweight syntax, with a focus on simplicity and ease of use.
Paradigm	Groovy is a multi-paradigm language that supports both object-oriented programming and functional programming.	Lua is a procedural language with support for some object-oriented programming concepts.
Typing	Groovy is a dynamically typed language, allowing for flexible and concise code.	Lua is dynamically typed, providing flexibility but also requiring careful handling of types.
Performance	Groovy is generally slower than Java due to its dynamic nature and additional features.	Lua is known for its fast and efficient performance, making it suitable for embedded systems and game development.
Libraries and frameworks	Groovy has a wide range of libraries and frameworks available, including integration with Java libraries.	Lua has a smaller ecosystem of libraries and frameworks compared to Groovy, but it is highly extensible and can easily integrate with C/C++ libraries.
Community and support	Groovy has a strong community and good support, with active development and regular updates.	Lua also has a supportive community, although it may not be as large as some other languages.
Learning curve	Groovy has a relatively low learning curve, especially for developers familiar with Java.	Lua has a simple and easy-to-learn syntax, making it suitable for beginners.
