I don't know how this is difficult to imagine. I have no need for C and am interested in interpreters and compilers.

With C you need to pay attention to things like manual memory management which aren't necessary with other languages or to understand the material.

Honestly, I think I'd prefer pseudocode that I can read to understand the idea and then work in my language of choice rather than C.

I don't know C and have no intention of learning it, so I'd prefer pseudocode that I can read without already knowing C or investing time into learning C just for this book.

> It’s definitely disingenuous to include JVM start up time in any benchmark. It's not since startup time matters for CLI applications.

Well, I'm in Germany, here you get strung up for talking in a library.
436.
by dunefox 4y ago
At a library you can't talk, so that's quite useless.

At my university we didn't have study rooms, only regular lecture halls and rooms that were either locked or in use. We had to study at the cafeteria which worked as well as you'd expect. So we studied in a small group of 3-4 peop

A couple of years ago I gave myself two evenings to setup and start to learn Ocaml. I gave up due to the tooling. Nothing worked, many things weren't obvious or explained. This is much better with Haskell, Rust, F#, ...

So, you are fine with google translating variable names but you absolutely cannot interpret symbols? Wow.
