C works pretty well. Linux is somewhere upwards of 20M LOC, and it's famously a monolith!

- bloppe 2y agoYa I'd say the key is lexical scoping and strong typing. C has those. Python and Ruby have neither.
- Lio 2y agoPerhaps you mean statically typed? i.e. type checked at compile time. C is generally not considered to be strongly typed but Ruby is. i.e. types aren't automatically coerced at runtime in Ruby.
