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 complex syntax that can be difficult to learn and use, especially for beginners.
Paradigm	Lua is a multi-paradigm language that supports procedural, functional, and object-oriented programming.	C++ is a multi-paradigm language that supports procedural, functional, and object-oriented programming, as well as generic programming.
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 many other scripting languages, but slower than compiled languages like C++.	C++ is a compiled language that is generally faster than interpreted languages like Lua.
Libraries and frameworks	Lua has a smaller standard library than C++, but there are many third-party libraries and frameworks available.	C++ has a large standard library and many third-party libraries and frameworks available.
Community and support	Lua has a smaller community and less support than C++.	C++ has a large community and a lot of support, including many online resources and forums.
Learning curve	Lua has a relatively low learning curve, especially for those with programming experience.	C++ has a steep learning curve, especially for beginners or those without programming experience.
