I can't transfer several useful concepts from Lua back to C.
Simple code like this seems problematic to me in C:
SomeTable= {Lua = "fun", a = 1, b = 2, c = 1 + 2}
Is there another complied language that is similar to Lua?
Probably not, but you can find compiled languages having useful
shortcuts (ie. syntax for associative arrays) like this one.
Perhaps D (but I never really learned it).
Nimrod <http://force7.de/nimrod> aims to have a syntax close of Python
(among other influences) and you can do:
const romanComposites = [
("M", 1000), ("CM", 900), ("D", 500), ("CD", 400), ("C", 100),
("XC", 90), ("L", 50), ("XL", 40), ("X", 10),
("IX", 9), ("V", 5), ("IV", 4), ("I", 1)
]
for example.
There are other compiled languages (usually generating C or C++ code to
be compiled with your favorite compiler - often GCC - for your platform)
around, like ooc (seems low level, close of C, haven't seen such syntax
sugar), haXe (this C++ back end seems recent, no?), perhaps the
(in)famous Google Go (or is it "Go!"?), Factor, etc.
