Looking at the Wikipedia article, it seems like it has some weird syntax choices. And even though it compiles to C code, I’m not convinced that it’s as fast as C or Rust, since it has a garbage collector.
Can compile to C which then compiles using your favourite compiler. So it can operate at the speed of C
Technically, it all compiles to assembly, but Python is still a lot slower than C or Rust. Speed is lost along the way through those layers of abstraction.
And the new memory management system is similar to rusts system (and can be fully disabled if you want manual memory management)
So it doesn’t have a garbage collector? I’m going to have to actually look into this myself.
Crab is Rust, but the last one…
Apparently it’s called nim.

I’m pretty skeptical it could be as fast and safe as Rust without the added challenge. Like, even doing what Rust did was a big deal.

I think it transpiles to C so theoretically it could be quite fast, but I doubt the generated C is as fast as manually written C or Rust.
