Pike programming language VS Lua

I'm sure I remember Pike starting off as a literal C interpreter, but somewhere along the line decided to become it's own 'C-like' language. https://pike.lysator.liu.se Wikipedia seems to imply that it was separated out from LPmud's built-in 'C interpreter' which sounds about right. - Source: Hacker News / 12 months ago

In any other case, I dunno. I just like it cos it's basically LPC being used outside a MUD. Check out the site though, and maybe play with it too. pike.lysator.liu.se. Source: over 1 year ago

Hope this helps! Source: about 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
