Zig elminates the pointer/array ambiguity issue that exists in C. It does increase the complexity of the language, but the safety you get out of it is very much worth it.
- pjmlp 3y agoHaving learn systems in BASIC variants, Pascal dialects and Z80/68000/8086 before dealing with C, I always prefered that added language complexity that has saved me so many times when not using C. Pity that even Dennis Ritchie failed to convince WG14 about fat pointers.
