If Zig's goal is 'replacing C', then its DOA. How can this be a valid goal for a programming language?

- sgt 8y agoIts goal is similar to that of Rust. I'm sure it has more goals than only replacing C. Effectively it can become yet another systems programming language, but potentially one of the best, and thus replace C (or work alongside C in existing programs). I haven't played with Zig but it looks a lot more appealing than e.g. Rust to me. In the end though, I'll prefer plain old C (C99 or C11).
