python:

{'x': y}
['x', 'y']

Lua:

{x='y'}
{'x','y'}

Also, lots of syntax differences (end, then, do, function, whitespace, elseif, etc). They are similar in that they are dynamic languages. I don't think anything was particularly inspired by anything else.

Ah, ok, in python {'x', 'y'} would denote an unordered set containing 'x' and 'y', I assumed a correspondence.

lua unordered sets are a bit more verbose:

{x = true, y = true}
