I'd say the language complexity (and it keeps piling more things) means it's pretty far from Python's ideas.
Julia is closer.
- andrepd 2y agoRust is an extraordinary simple language. Compare it to the complexity of C++.
- fulafel 2y agoWe can say that Mars is more similar to Earth than Jupiter even though Sagittarius A* exists.
- andrepd 2y agoUnsure which celestial body is supposed to be which in this comparison :p
- vacuity 2y agoIf you only compare against C++, maybe. Otherwise, no. C++ and Rust are in a class of their own when it comes to compile times and complexity.
- andrepd 2y agoWell C++ is the only major language (other than C itself) that occupies the same space. So it's natural that they are compared. And Rust is an order of magnitude simpler language than C++ almost comical web of intricacy.
