Characteristic | COBOL | Nim |
---|---|---|
Syntax | Verbose, English-like, designed for readability and business logic. | Concise, Python-like, modern syntax with significant whitespace. |
Paradigm | Procedural, with some support for object-oriented programming in later versions. | Multi-paradigm: supports procedural, object-oriented, functional, and metaprogramming. |
Typing | Static, weak typing. | Static, strong typing with type inference. |
Performance | Optimized for batch processing and business applications; generally slower than modern compiled languages. | Compiles to C, C++, or JavaScript; offers high performance close to C. |
Libraries and frameworks | Limited, mostly focused on business, finance, and legacy systems. | Growing ecosystem, supports modern libraries for web, networking, GUI, and more. |
Community and support | Small, aging community; strong support in legacy enterprise environments. | Small but active and growing open-source community. |
Learning curve | Steep for modern programmers due to outdated syntax and paradigms. | Gentle for those familiar with Python or modern languages; modern documentation. |
