When you start working in a new language, the best thing to do is to get a book and familiarize yourself with any constructs or patterns you are not familiar with. Expecting things to be similar to what you’re used to (which lower the learning curve) is a fool’s errand.
- t-writescode 2y agoTo learn a new language, you need a reason to learn that new language and you need sufficient drive to go through with it. Having familiar constructs not only make it easier to code-switch between languages (people that work on multi-language projects know that pain pretty well), but also decreases the barrier to entry to the language in the first place.
