Nimrod looks and feels like python, but it compiles to C. It's like C except with Pythonic syntax and with Boehm GC optional. In addition, Nimrod has a burgeoning NPM-like module ecosystem developing, albeit in the early stages. import rdstdin, strutils let time24 = readLineFromStdin("Enter a 24-hour time: ").split(':').map(parseInt) hours24 = time24[0] minutes24 = time24[1] flights: array[8, tuple[since: int, depart: string, arrive: string]] = [(480, "8:00 a.m.", "10:16 a.m."), (583, "9:43 a.m.", "11:52 a.m."), (679, "11:19 a.m.", "1:31 p.m."), (767, "12:47 p.m.", "3:00 p.m."), (840, "2:00 p.m.", "4:08 p.m."), (945, "3:45 p.m.", "5:55 p.m."), (1140, "7:00 p.m.", "9:20 p.m."), (1305, "9:45 p.m.", "11:58 p.m.")] proc minutesSinceMidnight(hours: int = hours24, minutes: int = minutes24): int = hours * 60 + minutes proc cmpFlights(m = minutesSinceMidnight()): seq[int] = result = newSeq[int](flights.len) for i in 0 .. <flights.len: result[i] = abs(m - flights[i].since) proc getClosest(): int = for k,v in cmpFlights(): if v == cmpFlights().min: return k echo "Closest departure time is ", flights[getClosest()].depart, ", arriving at ", flights[getClosest()].arrive
