A great strength of Lua is its simplicity and Luan takes this even further, being even simpler than Lua. The goal is to provide a simple programming language for the casual programmer with as few concepts as possible so that one can quickly learn the language and then easily understand any code written in Luan.</p> + +<p>Luan is implemented in Java and is tightly coupled with Java. So it makes a great scripting language for Java programmers.</p> + +<p>Unlike Lua which is meant to be embedded, Luan is meant to be a full scripting language. This done not by adding feature to Luan, but rather by providing a complete set of libraries.</p> <h1>2 – <a name="2">Basic Concepts</a></h1> @@ -10787,5 +10746,6 @@ Last change: minor edit --> -</body></html> - +</div> +</body> +</html>
