Programming languages that support arbitrary precision computations, either built-in, or in the standard library of the language: Ada: the upcoming Ada 202x revision adds the Ada.Numerics.Big_Numbers.Big_Integers and Ada.Numerics.Big_Numbers.Big_Reals packages to the standard library, providing arbitrary precision integers and real numbers.
A library written in one programming language may be used in another language if language bindings are written. FLTK has a range of bindings for various languages. FLTK was mainly designed for, and is written in, the programming language C++. However, bindings exist for other languages, for example Lua, [6] Perl, [7] Python, [8] Ruby, [9] Rust ...
Several features were added in new Lua versions. Versions of Lua prior to version 5.0 were released under a license similar to the BSD license. From version 5.0 onwards, Lua has been licensed under the MIT License. Both are permissive free software licences and are almost identical.
In Lua, "table" is a fundamental type that can be used either as an array (numerical index, fast) or as an associative array. The keys and values can be of any type, except nil. The following focuses on non-numerical indexes. A table literal is written as { value, key = value, [index] = value, ["non id string"] = value }. For example:
Torch is an open-source machine learning library, a scientific computing framework, and a scripting language based on Lua. [3] It provides LuaJIT interfaces to deep learning algorithms implemented in C. It was created by the Idiap Research Institute at EPFL. Torch development moved in 2017 to PyTorch, a port of the library to Python. [4] [5] [6]
LuaRocks is a package manager for the Lua programming language that provides a standard format for distributing Lua modules (in a self-contained format called a "rock"), a tool designed to easily manage the installation of rocks, and a server for distributing them. While not included with the Lua distribution, it has been called the "de facto ...
It was based on the free Fireball-X. [13] C++ and Lua support for creator is under alpha-stage development since April 2017. [14] SpriteBuilderX, a free scene editor for Cocos2d-X with C++ support and runs on macOS only. [15] X-Studio, a proprietary [16] scene editor for Cocos2d-X with Lua support and runs on Windows only. [17] [18]
Lua functions may pass varargs to other functions the same way as other values using the return keyword. tables can be passed into variadic functions by using, in Lua version 5.2 or higher [9] table.unpack, or Lua 5.1 or lower [10] unpack. Varargs can be used as a table by constructing a table with the vararg as a value.
