Your post just links to educational videos on programming languages...
What does roblox have to do with anything in your thread?

Not to mention just about everything in this thread is either inaccurate or blatantly wrong. Python and Lua are nothing like C, and by no means are either of them "programming languages". Secondly, I don't think OP knows what embedded computing is. Maybe emulated or scripted software, but this is far from embedded.

Lua isn't "far from embedded" at all, actually. Lua is EXTREMELY easy to embed. It's literally designed to embed into C/C++ programs (which is what the Lua C API is for). Take a look at World Of Worldcraft. It uses an embedded Lua version to help maintain the game's UI elements.

Embedded typically means embedded hardware. Things like this usually don't use common instruction sets like AMD64 or ARM in favor of things like HSC12 or VAX. More often than not, you'll find a PIC2 microcontroller at the heart of an embedded device. Just because you've added a language parser to a program does not make it embedded programming, it makes it a language parser itegral to a program.
