Nim has a similar, strong preference for value semantics. However, its dynamic heap types (strings, seqs, tables) are all implemented as wrappers that hide the internal references and behave with value semantics by default, unless explicitly escape hatched. It makes it incredibly easy to manipulate almost any data in a functional, expression-oriented manner, while preserving the speed and efficiency of being backed by a doubling array-list.
