"Python falls in the middle of C and Lisp and thus is a useful comparison (and everyday-living) language." Its a shame Lua isn't more widely used / known that would be an even better fit.
Because its far more of a middle ground between those 2 than Python in my opinion, it gives you very little that you can do a lot with - for instance compare the singular Lua table with the wide choice of data structures Python offers. Theres a great paper by Robert Ierusalimschy that goes through the multi-paradigm / extensibility that Lua offers: http://www.inf.puc-rio.br/~roberto/docs/ry09-03.pdf |
