Only a mother could love Swift's syntax. The classic K&R C, on the other hand, was the very definition of simplicity and elegance. (Objective-C is a whole another topic, of course.)
- KerrAvon 4y agoClassic K&R C? Where you declared the function arguments Pascal style out of line and had to rely on separate “lint” programs to check for typesafety in function calls? Surely you mean C89, where functions have some type safety but C’s variable declaration syntax remains a horrible inelegant kludge? Have you written much code in Swift?
- pyth0 4y agoI really don't understand this take at all. Swift has fairly standard syntax as far as modern languages go.
