I’ve spent the last week or so diving into Crestron SIMPL+ and have been reminded what a quirky language it is. Here are some of the concepts I’ve been bitten by.

New Language: Lua
Today I decided I would start playing around with Lua a bit to see how far I can go with the language. I came across a post on Reddit this morning talking about the differences in versions, and learned that between 5.1, 5.2, and 5.3 the differences are great. It looks like Lua is a very mature language that has stabilized, so probably a good time to give it a try.
I hope to post some of my projects here as I’m working on them. It’ll be small snippets of code I’m sure, but hopefully it will be something interesting to follow.
On Abstraction
Finally: a post about computer programming! It’s taken a few weeks to get around to writing something new for this blog, but it’s been a busy few weeks full of programming. So let me jot down my thoughts about it while it’s still fresh and I have something worthwhile to share on the matter.
