The compressed package includes Lua 5.1.4Win system running package and C source code!
In 1993, a programming language was born at the Pontifical Catholic University of Rio de Janeiro in Brazil. The inventors were three researchers from the school. They gave the language a romantic name - Lua. , represents the beautiful moon in Portuguese. Facts have proved that she did not waste this beautiful word, and the Lua language has grown into a simple, elegant and fun language as its name predicts.
Lua was designed from the beginning as a lightweight scripting language that is easy to embed (in other applications) and extensible. Therefore, it has always followed the principles of simplicity, compactness, portability, and speed. The official implementation completely uses ANSI C It is written and can be embedded into the host program in the form of a C library. Each version of Lua maintains the tradition of open source, but the license agreements adopted by each version are different. Starting from version 5.0 (the latest version is 5.1), it It adopts the famous MIT license agreement. Because of the above characteristics, Lua has been increasingly widely used in various fields such as game development, robot control, distributed applications, image processing, and bioinformatics. Among them, game development is the most popular. Many famous games, such as Escape from Monkey Island, World of Warcraft, and Westward Journey, all use Lua to cooperate with the engine to complete tasks such as data description, configuration management, and logic control.
