Are you trying to imply that python is both fast and strongly typed? As for the syntax that's largely a matter of opinion. Most ruby-enjoyers I know specifically call out the syntax as something they like
Also I'm not qualified to comment on Lua so I won't. Most of my language exploration has been with languages many people famously hate (perl and lisp)
All of that is to say I generally don't think talking about what language is "best" is really a productive conversation. I was mostly curious if you had an intimate understanding of the tradeoffs or otherwise a strong opinion about how it was constructed
im saying python is very slow, but ruby is even slower.
