[Disclaimer please do not read if you don't know anything about Lua or Java]


In the war of what is better Lua or Java which is the better programming language?

Well first off Lua is good in this stuff

Short and sweetness

Gui's

Data Persistence

Bindable functions


-------------------------------------
Java is good in this stuff

Handles more code Mainly up too [1M Series of Code]--Most of the Time

No laggy scripts

Remote functions

Networking

Now we go to handy item in Lua

The storage containers[Server Storage, Serverscript Storage, etc]

Now in Java handy items

Backup items such as

The Re-Boots

["Mainly stuff that if a site or internet shuts down you still play--Not for advanced games.]

[Networking between entities]

So honestly for a hardcore game like MMO[Player to player interactions mainly]

Java wins

For like a bit Local web--After all isn't that what Roblox is about keep you and me safe online in games???

Lua wins for Localish Web

They both have a purpose Beginner I recommend Lua then Advanced Java

Both Good for there purposes

[Hopefully this shines some light on the programming languages]

Bye Robloxians.

If Roblox adds C++ and Java or even just Java the Compacity will be so outstanding Roblox will have more developers and it will be a new age in Roblox

@Mkhero4433

Please stop attempting to start an intelligent discussion when you lack the knowledge to do so. There are fundamental differences that separate Lua and Java, and it's apparent that you believe Lua is RBXLua which cannot be more wrong. It's obvious you don't even understand the basic principles on how either language works and what is the difference between a script and a program. Java is used to create programs, libraries, and more. It's not a script, please stop defining it as such. The fact you also think because Java is Java is the reason why a program is "laggy" is more proof that you don't understand how programming works in general. To be honest, I could name so many inconsistencies in what you've said so far, but, why bother? Anyways, I'll end it with this, if you're going to create a discussion please, please, know what you're talking about.

Well actually I know the difference I am just stating that Lua is Good for So and So RBX Lua is adjusted for its many purposes and clauses so honestly I kew this would happen and honestly what you said was predicable so if you read hopefully you will know the fundamentals of this very message.

@Composure

Honestly your point is no more than a statement so there is really no use arguing about it. I know Lua and Java now can you please stop until you find that I don't know what and I'm saying and you then fine; but until then Goodbye.

Another Disclaimer I know RBX Lua is not Lua that is why its called Lua, Its adjusted for it any purposes. Also why do people say Roblox is processed by just Lua its not its Java also a popular programming language.

@MK Why don't you cut down your usage of vocabulary words? ROBLOX is not "processed" by Lua, the engine has been written in C++.
