Key differences between ActionScript and Lua

Characteristic	ActionScript	Lua
Syntax	ActionScript has a syntax similar to that of JavaScript, with curly braces and semicolons used to delimit blocks and statements.	Lua has a simple and flexible syntax with a focus on readability and ease of use. It uses keywords and punctuation marks to delimit blocks and statements.
Paradigm	ActionScript is an object-oriented language that supports both procedural and functional programming paradigms.	Lua is a multi-paradigm language that supports procedural, functional, and object-oriented programming paradigms.
Typing	ActionScript is a strongly typed language, with type checking performed at compile time.	Lua is a dynamically typed language, with type checking performed at runtime.
Performance	ActionScript is generally slower than Lua due to its heavier syntax and more complex object model.	Lua is generally faster than ActionScript due to its lightweight syntax and simple object model.
Libraries and frameworks	ActionScript has a large number of libraries and frameworks available, including the Adobe Flex framework and the Starling framework for game development.	Lua has a smaller number of libraries and frameworks available, but it is often used in game development with the Corona SDK.
Community and support	The ActionScript community has declined in recent years due to the decreasing popularity of Flash, but there are still resources and support available.	The Lua community is smaller than some other languages, but it is active and supportive, with many resources available online.
Learning curve	ActionScript has a moderate learning curve, with a syntax similar to JavaScript and a focus on object-oriented programming.	Lua has a relatively easy learning curve, with a simple syntax and a focus on ease of use.
