What we type in: What comes out: It's Never Lupus! As you may have guessed, the statement print("blah blah blah") will print out blah blah blah. If someone says Auto Immune again, you're fired!

Squeak by Example wiki: Lua Uses Here are brief descriptions of a few selected projects around the world that use Lua. (Wikipedia contains a [longer list].) If you know about an exciting project using Lua that is not listed here, please add it. What is the policy for adding items to this page? Yes, this is a filtered list, but the authors don't want to maintain the filtering algorithm and prefer the community to do the selection. I don't think a comprehensive list has much point and might become a junkyard of defunct projects which never got off the ground.

Lua Un article de Wikipédia, l'encyclopédie libre. Créé en 1993, il est conçu de manière à pouvoir être embarqué au sein d'autres applications afin d'étendre celles-ci, comme en témoigne la compacité de son interpréteur (95 à 185 ko pour la version 5.0.2, selon le compilateur utilisé et le système cible). Lua (qui signifie « Lune » en portugais) a été développé par Luiz Henrique de Figueiredo, Roberto Ierusalimschy (en) et Waldemar Celes, membres du groupe de recherche TeCGraf, de l'université pontificale catholique de Rio de Janeiro au Brésil. Il est particulièrement apprécié pour le développement de jeux vidéo comme pour l'interface du jeu World of Warcraft de Blizzard Entertainment, pour Garry's Mod ou Far Cry (et le moteur CryEngine en général) de Crytek Studios, voire encore pour SimCity 4 et Natural Selection 2 de Unknown Worlds Entertainment qui a entre autres développé Decoda, un IDE pour Lua.
