I have a far easier time reading Rust than C. Probably because it’s been years since I’ve had to do C, and I find some of the syntax and patterns quite C-specific and confusing. Python also does not express some of the important implementation details well enough in its standard syntax IMO: there’s no obvious delineation between references and pass by value in Python, borrowing, etc. So realistically, this is just the other half of the coin for all the articles where the code examples were written in C and everyone who didn’t really read C just had to put up with it.
