I think you're trying to say you like C but dislike C++'s complexity.
You will enjoy Go.
Go can be understood as an improved, modernized C that doesn't abandon C's simplicity.
- the_duke 5y agoThe "Go is like C" comparison never made any sense to me. Go has a sophisticated runtime with transparent N:M threading and built-in concurrency primitives, Interfaces, garbage collection and a large standard library. Go is only simple when compared to the other languages that sit in a similar space, like Java and C#.
- pjmlp 5y agoC's runtime is UNIX, that is why we got POSIX.
- throw_m239339 5y ago> Go can be understood as an improved, modernized C that doesn't abandon C's simplicity. This is false, because Go has a garbage collector by default. This isn't an "improvement" in anyway but for those who don't care about memory management and predictable and deterministic performances.
