Is Lua+C+SQLite the Holy Trinity of simplicity, speed and sexiness?

C's the only good one of those.
God tier: APL, Coq, FORTH, Idris

Try writing anything longer than fizzbuzz in C and calling it 'simple'.
>>54980328
APL=Apple
Coq=Cock

RAM is so cheap these days free() belongs to the past
>>54980584
Not for real-time systems, where *any* kind of non-deterministic delay results in no longer being fit-for-purpose.
>>54980584
Have fun with memory leaks idiot

>>54980584
Tell that to the Rust game devs
>>54980669
you can implement lambdas with macros, function pointers and gnu c (standard c doesn't allow functions to be defined within other functions)
>>54980779
Buy more RAM jesus christ it's fucking cheap
>>54980037
Lua's syntax is an eyesore
>>54980037
C + Perl + PostgreSQL. This is your Holy Trinity OP.
>>54980037
that's the holy trinity of no productivity.

What are you, new?
>>54980669
>no lambdas
useless anyway

jscuck, amirite? no leftpad either
>no namespaces
you clearly don't know C if you don't know it has namespaces
>guessing
jscuck confirmed! actual programmers know to read documentation, no need for guessing
>>54981084
but postgres isn't lightweight
>>54980037
replace Lua with tcl
>>54981209
>lambdas are useless
thank you for input pajeet
>>54981241
no problem, retards such as yourself need to be educated
for what do you think you NEED lambdas? I'll school you even further
>>54981209
>having to read documentation for every single called function to even have any general idea about what the code is supposed to do
>not understanding lambdas, closures and their use and therefore calling them useless
>thinking that wanting to use anything more useful than bare-bone arrays is automatically a JS user
There's a reason nobody uses them in C++, Java, C# and other languages that actually come with features. C is shit and minimalism in languages leads to shitty code due to having to work around all the lacking features.
Good luck trying to use C's built in function to sort an array of indices (of another array) by the values of the other array without closures, and without using some shitty workaround that makes an one liner in a decent language have 50 lines of code.
>>54981278
For what do you think you NEED anything else than assembly?
It's not about NEEDING them, it's about making the code cleaner and shorter. Especially when dealing with C's lack of closures.
>>54981344
>backpedaling
oh, so now it's closures? I never said anything about closures, I said lambdas are useless; let me guess, you think they're the same thing, right jstard? fuck off
>>54981382
>dealing with C's lack of closures
lambdas are not closures you shit stain """html programmer"""
C, Lua and SDL in my case.
>>54981412
>waaah, my favourite language is an antic piece of shit with no features, so everyone who doesn't like it is a web dev
Kill yourself, retard. Lambdas in any decent language automatically imply closures, see C++, C#, Java. For any situation you run into, you can pick one of those 3 languages and be better off than with C. For performance, C++, and for everything else, C# or Java.
>inb4 muh bloat
Java and python and ruby is good
The poo is strong with this one
>>54981779
lua is shit
this guy has the right idea: >>54981221
>>54981617
Java supported closures before it even got lambdas
http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.git/57918
>>54982236
>>54982152
And C supports neither.
>>54982481
GNU C supports nested functions, which you can use like lambdas using a well-written macro.
Only gcc and clang support it tho.
>>54981084
>perl
You should stop using this insecure POS.
>>54982248
nice shop
