There's a reason assembly has been relegated to very specific & specialized use cases. I'd almost want to say the same about C++.
The best production code is very simple, very understandable.
- valenterry 4y agoTrue, but I can extend my example to "javascript -> Haskell" or "Haskell -> Rust" or "Rust -> Prolog" - and vice vera. In every case, you can't just simply understand the code because you will have to learn new concepts first.
