Possibly the best compile to C language. Easy to setup, fast, feature rich, works nice with C and best part: configurable GC.
One thing i don't like tho: Case insensitivity.
I write many in many languages, all but Nimrod are case sensitive. Lot's of 'already defined' errors.
There is nice discussion about it here: https://github.com/Araq/Nimrod/issues/521 https://github.com/Araq/Nimrod/issues/521

- jk4930 13y agoAda (Pascal-inspired) was designed to be a language that's safe against (mediocre) programmers. And it's case-insensitive. Note that Ada is especially made for reliable systems and they really look for error sources. Case sensitivity didn't show up as a problem, so they didn't have to change it in any later version (Ada 2012 now).
- cafard 13y agoI'm not sure that Thompson and Ritchie really did the world a favor with case-sensitive identifiers. I write a fair bit of PL/SQL, and don't mind the narrower range.
