Key differences between Lua and C

Characteristic	Lua	C
Syntax	Lua has a simple and flexible syntax that is easy to learn and use.	C has a more complex syntax than Lua, but it is still relatively easy to learn and use.
Paradigm	Lua is a multi-paradigm language that supports procedural, functional, and object-oriented programming.	C is a procedural language that does not support object-oriented programming natively.
Typing	Lua is dynamically typed, which means that variable types are determined at runtime.	C is statically typed, which means that variable types are determined at compile time.
Performance	Lua is generally faster than interpreted languages like Python and Ruby, but slower than compiled languages like C.	C is a compiled language that is generally faster than interpreted languages like Python and Ruby.
Libraries and frameworks	Lua has a smaller standard library than C, but it has a large number of third-party libraries and frameworks available.	C has a large standard library and a smaller number of third-party libraries and frameworks available.
Community and support	Lua has a smaller community than C, but it is still active and has good support.	C has a large and active community with extensive support.
Learning curve	Lua has a relatively low learning curve, especially for programmers who are already familiar with other scripting languages.	C has a steeper learning curve than Lua, especially for programmers who are not familiar with low-level programming concepts.
