This example doesn't show me any meaningful difference, and Rust also let's you attach functionality to enums.
- isodev 9mo agoSwift tends to overuse enums, for example people would use them instead of namespaces or when they want a function but don’t want to create a class or a struct which in my opinion has always felt like a work-around for language deficiencies.
- kibwen 9mo agoIt also assumes that "C-like syntax" is a desirable thing. Many of the worst parts of Rust syntax (and Swift syntax, and Java syntax, and Javascript syntax, and...) are things it took from C.
