- eyelidlessness 3y agoRust also is functional by default with clearly distinguished imperative mechanisms. In my (admittedly limited) experience, Rust hews more towards the type theory of MLs and generally encourages programming with expressions rather than statements. The syntax is definitely less lispy but not so much that it’s hard to metaprogram.
