Two examples of interesting ideas:
- using zero values as an optimization mechanism;
- (non-)pointers and passing self by copy.
I mean, I hate both mechanisms, but intellectually, I find them quite interesting.
Also, I'd not classify it as a faster Python. It's more of a cousin of Obj-C if the authors of Obj-C had fallen in love of Erlang instead of Smalltalk.
- bombela 1y agoThose ideas where already present in C/C++ decades prior. BSS program area. And passing struct by value vs pointer.
