Yeah I've used Swift a bit and found it in need of cleaning up.
To be quite honest, I've found in the last 5 years a lot of professional developers have lost sight of the maxim that brevity is not better than clarity.

- ebbv 10y agoYes it is. I like it a lot more than Go too. I wasn't slagging Swift, I was talking about the code example in the original article (like the comment I was replying to.)
- fleshweasel 10y agoDo you have any examples you care to share of Swift that needs cleaning up?
- ebbv 10y agoSorry for the poor wording, I was responding to the comment saying that the code example was hard to read. I was agreeing with that. I really like Swift itself.
