It's amazing that one person can do all this. It really takes a huge amount of dedication, knowledge and high IQ to invent a language from scratch alone. I think he is trying to Rustify Golang which is a thing I always wanted to do before giving up entirely on Golang.
- hollerith 7y agoWhen I saw your "Rustify" I assumed V has a borrow checker, which it turns out not to have. Having immutable variables, no null type and option types is not enough to make a language Rust-like IMO because dozens of languages have those things. ADDED. Now that I know more, I see you have a point: V and Rust are the only 2 languages I know that have immutable variables, no null type, option types and no automatic memory management (i.e., garbage collection): https://vlang.io/docs#memory https://vlang.io/docs#memory
- amedvednikov 7y agoYes, like https://vlang.io/compare https://vlang.io/compare says, V is somewhere in between Go and Rust.
