Luazen support for windows

Hey!

About this project: https://github.com/philanc/luazen/

I've been looking for some cryptography libs in lua and couldn't find many, except this one using ed25519 that worked really well on mac, but I can't get it to work on windows.

Has any one ever tried to port this to windows? I saw the issues with some attempts, just curious if anyone here tried too.

Or also, if there's any other lib that I could use, I'd be happy to change - but I couldn't find any

Thanks in advance

how to learn

i’m a beginner to lua and coding in general and i want to learn how to code it, but i dont know where to start. all the youtube videos and tutorials i’ve watched so far haven’t helped, so i decided to come to the place of eternal wisdom: reddit. i primarily intend to use it for roblox game development. i just keep getting lost and feel like im going in circles and not actually learning anything. any advice?

Lua 5.5 length operator now stricer than with Lua 5.4

While porting lua-cjson to Lua 5.5, I encountered a test case failure. It appears that Lua 5.5 handles table length evaluation more strictly than previous versions, especially regarding tables with holes:

C:\...\tests> lua -e "print(VERSION); t={nil,true}; print(#t)"
Lua 5.5
0

[C:\...\tests]> C:\Apps\OneLuaPro-5.4.8.3-x64\bin\lua.exe -e "print(VERSION); t={nil,true}; print(#t)"
Lua 5.4
2

Bug or feature? I've also posted this issue into the lua-l list.

Code lua

Bonjour, j'apprends le langage de programmation Lua. Je me lance de petits défis, et celui-ci consiste à déclencher une action : une explosion se produit lorsqu'on touche un élément. Je ne sais pas comment faire. Pourriez-vous m'aider ?

typing lua is way slower than my normal typing speed for some reason

been noscripting in lua for a while now (mainly roblox studio stuff) and just noticed my typing speed tanks whenever i'm actually coding vs just typing normal text

like i can do 75wpm easy on regular stuff but the moment i'm typing function(), end, pairs of brackets, table constructors with all the commas and colons... drops to like 45wpm. really annoying when you're trying to iterate fast or you're in the zone and your fingers are just lagging behind

found this site typequicker that has a lua practice mode where you can drill actual lua syntax. function declarations, table operations, all those symbols that mess up your flow. been running through it for like 15min before coding sessions

went from \~45wpm on lua code to like 70wpm in a few weeks which is kinda wild. now typing for k,v in pairs() or nested tables doesn't have that awkward stutter anymore

also shows which fingers are slow so you can focus on what's actually holding you back. my right pinky was terrible at brackets and parentheses lol

anyway if your typing feels like it's bottlenecking your lua workflow might be worth checking out. better than just grinding random words that don't help with actual syntax

Any good tutorials for LÖVR 3d?

I'm a completely inexperienced programmer and I only recently learned to program in Lua. I was looking for a way to explore 3d and decided to learn LÖVR 3d. Is there a good source that introduces LÖVR for beginners?

Experimental Lua2C

I have been working on a project to turn simple lua code into actual working, compilable C code, and its working! (With static compilation if you have a C compiler, i guess)

It currently supports:
Variables with strings, integers, and floats
Variable manipulation with addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division
Functions with experimental arguments
And Print()

~~if this gets 20 upvotes ill make it open source~~ WE GOT 20 UPVOTES

# Source code: https://github.com/LuaToC/LuaToC

UPDATE 1: Added tables and loops, currently working on os since i want clock,
Update 2: Wait how are theese updates going so fast? Anyway, added experimental os and math libraries, their code inspired by luajit!
Update 3: Minor update, added assert(), optimized print() a bit, and fixed some memory leaks
Update 4: Fixed assert() lol, nearly halfed noscript size by cleaning up code (1700 lines > 900 lines), fixed more memory leaks

noscript not working anymore

This noscript on the logitech app had been working fine for me for over a year now and suddenly stopped working. EnableRC = true

RequireToggle = true

ToggleKey = "CapsLock"

RecoilControlMode = "LOW"



local RecoilPresets = {

LOW = { Vertical = 5, Horizontal = 0 },

MEDIUM = { Vertical = 8, Horizontal = 0 },

HIGH = { Vertical = 10, Horizontal = 0 },

ULTRA = { Vertical = 18, Horizontal = 0 },

ASH = { Vertical = 13, Horizontal = -1 },

TWITCH = { Vertical = 21, Horizontal =0 },

DOC = { Vertical = 5, Horizontal = 0 },

ELLA = { Vertical = 8, Horizontal = 2 },

HIB = { Vertical = 9, Horizontal = -1 },

SMG = { Vertical = 13, Horizontal = 1 },

ACE = { Vertical = 10, Horizontal = 0 },

JAG = { Vertical = 6, Horizontal = 0 }

}



local Recoil = RecoilPresets[RecoilControlMode\] or RecoilPresets.MEDIUM

local VerticalStrength = Recoil.Vertical

local HorizontalStrength = Recoil.Horizontal



EnablePrimaryMouseButtonEvents(true)

function OnEvent(event, arg)

if EnableRC and (not RequireToggle or IsKeyLockOn(ToggleKey)) then

if IsMouseButtonPressed(3) thenAW

while IsMouseButtonPressed(3) do

if IsMouseButtonPressed(1) then

while IsMouseButtonPressed(1) do

MoveMouseRelative(HorizontalStrength, VerticalStrength)

Sleep(7)

end

end

Sleep(10)

end

end

end

end

I get an error message on the "end"'s anyone know why?

How do i learn lua

I do not know any coding languages and i wanted to learn lua since a while.
I heard it is pretty simple.

Iv'e been practicing lua for a week, how do i keep learning more complex Things?

Iv'e been learning lua for about a week now and iv'e gotten the hang of simple for, while loops aswell As simple functions and the Basic stuff Like print() and so on. Iv'e been following a YouTube Tutorial (codyn) for the whole time trying to understand His Code and when Things got tough iv'e used Chat gpt. Even though Sometimes iv'e feelt His explanaitions unsatisfactory i have still been very satisfied. In Part 8 you learn a "simple Tic Tac toe Game" Its about 80 lines of Code witch i have been only (Up to that Point) written Like 20 max. So now my question. How do i learn stuff Like that? Iv'e tried understanding the parts of it but Its so Long and complicated, It feels Like my head Just wont Take It in. What are my next steps to learn? Any Tutorials? I know of the book wich is free online, should i try IT with that?
