Python is for beginners, loaded heavily with systamatic codes, and slow. C++ is for advanced programmers and fast but requires engineering to understand. Lua is fast and no engineering required. Lua > c++. Prove me wrong.

This is a video where a bunch of cs professors are asked what their favorite language is. They all say python or C

Advanced programmers use the best tool for the job, not just the "hammer".

I'm not sure what you're trying to say here. Lua is a scripting language, and therefore is not as fast as a compiled language like C++. However, it is also much easier to learn and use than C++, so it really depends on what you're looking for.

C++ is a fucking non-Euclidian nightmare space. C on the other hand is like old faithful, it just werks. People who lump the two together are revealing their inexperience.
