I did not know this about Nim and does also seem quite a big turn off and a bit of a WTF decision
I have never coded any Nim, just read about it though :)
- mclehman 8y agoI've never used Nim either (mostly C/Perl6/Clojure), but all I hear when this gets brought up is that I would finally be able to use a consistent style for all code I write, regardless of whether or not I personally implemented everything I'm using.
- anentropic 8y agothinking more about it... I guess the intention is NOT to let you carelessly use Myvar, MyVar and myvar willy-nilly in your code, as I had first imagined I assume the intention is to PREVENT you from deliberately defining those names as different vars, which would be confusing So, on reflection, maybe it is not such a WTF
