Lua vs. Pine Script vs. Quantum Programming Studio vs. Swift Comparison Chart

Lua is a powerful, efficient, lightweight, embeddable scripting language. It supports procedural programming, object-oriented programming, functional programming, data-driven programming, and data description. Lua combines simple procedural syntax with powerful data description constructs based on associative arrays and extensible semantics. Lua is dynamically typed, runs by interpreting bytecode with a register-based virtual machine, and has automatic memory management with incremental garbage collection, making it ideal for configuration, scripting, and rapid prototyping. Lua has a deserved reputation for performance. To claim to be "as fast as Lua" is an aspiration of other scripting languages. Several benchmarks show Lua as the fastest language in the realm of interpreted scripting languages. Lua is fast not only in fine-tuned benchmark programs, but in real life too. Substantial fractions of large applications have been written in Lua.

Circuit can be exported to multiple quantum programming languages/frameworks and can be executed on various simulators and quantum computers. You can use simple drag & drop user interface to assemble circuit diagram which automatically translates to code, and vice versa - you can type the code and the diagram is updated accordingly. QPS Client is running on your local machine (or in the cloud) where your quantum programming environment is installed. It opens a secure websocket connection with Quantum Programming Studio server and executes quantum circuits (that you design in the web UI) on your local simulator or on a real quantum computer.
