well, we can backport it :P

Why not? OO and FP can coexist, they actually imply/help each other. Now I understand if you don't trust me, but what about a senior programmer http://blog.cleancoder.com/uncle-bob/2014/11/24/FPvsOO.html

goals not usages

We aren't arguing, we're discussing how JS and Lua aren't similar to each other

That is exactly the goal of JS. The goal of Lua is as follows Certainly usable for client-side webpage scripting, but much wider application

A cool thing about this is it allows the language programmer to only need to build an object system, not a class system. Oh, and also, that means that every link between objects and their parents is direct and explicit

Similar in those things, but they are put to very different purposes. For example, the problem domain of the two languages is entirely different as are the goals of the langauges

Well, actually, I need to be specific Lua is OO, but it is different from most OO that people see. In most Object Oriented you have classes which can be constructed into objects. However, in languages like JS and Lua, which are used primarily for scripting you have prototype-based OO, which is...

What can I say, I'm predicable :P Also, lua and js aren't that similar, as all the responses to that stack overflow question show...

Wait...lua isn't OO, but I wouldn't say it's functional, functions being first-class doesn't make an FP language...

I would actually take that one further. All normal functions with right/left including shift for all items. Then, if someone holds down a certain key, then it would act like an empty hand, say ',' for the key. Actually fairly easy to make, a lot of boilerplate, but easy

Yeah :P Probably because it is a one person project that is very in-dev ;)

:P Dunno, the person has a sense of humor. For example once they tweeted about how half their pages were open to OCaml FP documentation and the other half to bondage porn and said that it was fitting.

Oooo, i live in Tennessee, although not that part of the state :P Good logic for hang gliding :P

Well, this is interesting for a new language emilylang.org. Might pick it up while it's still young...

That works :P

BTW, you should put a "My moderating text will look like this" thing in your siggy like the others :P I knew it was mod text...but just for any who wouldn't know ;)

Why? Just like, what?
