C++ VS Lua

About 4 months ago (approximately the last time I wrote something here), I opted to embark on a graduate school journey at Stony Brook University, Computer Science (if you have a remote position — Technical Writer and/or Software Engineer position — at a non-USA company, don't hesitate to reach out). Was it the best decision to make considering less pay (if any), more theoretical undertakings and assumptions, and... - Source: dev.to / 4 months ago

Full of wrong and/or incomplete information. I prefer cplusplus.com when I need to look up some library details. Source: 10 months ago

For C++ I would suggest using cplusplus.com. Fantastic resource to use. Source: 10 months ago

C++ was far from my first language. I took Modula-2 and FORTRAN in school. I knew about pointers, linked lists, etc before writing my first line of C++. I think the best way to learn is just to work on projects that interest you. Get familiar with online resources. I like cplusplus.com and cppreference.com (can get a little verbose). I'm also a big fan of w3schools.com. They have a good C++ tutorial for beginners. Source: 11 months ago

I second this. cplusplus.com will pop up on your searches, I just blocked it. Loaded with ads and slow, and almost always less thorough than cppreference. I found geeksforgeeks OK when learning algorithms - not so much the language itself though. Source: 11 months ago

The official lua website is a pretty good place to go! As well as lua users & tutorials point has a really good tutorial for lua too! The official site may be hard to understand at time (it was for me at least) but that’s why I gave you the other two. they’ll explain it simpler/better than the official site may sometimes. Hope this helps! Source: about 1 year ago

I have tried a few thins but no luck and found nothing on the web, also looks as if lua.org main forums no longer exist. Source: over 1 year ago

Not at all! Lua, for instance, starts indexing at 1. I don't like it personally, but Lua obviously exists and is quite popular. Source: over 1 year ago
