This free online converter lets you convert code from Fsharp to Carbon in a click of a button. To use this converter, take the following steps -
Characteristic | Fsharp | Carbon |
---|---|---|
Syntax | Concise, functional-first syntax influenced by ML and OCaml; uses significant whitespace. | C++-like syntax designed for easy migration from C++; more modern and simplified than C++. |
Paradigm | Multi-paradigm with a strong emphasis on functional programming, also supports object-oriented and imperative styles. | Primarily imperative and object-oriented, designed as a successor to C++ with modern features. |
Typing | Statically typed with strong type inference and type safety. | Statically typed with a focus on safety and modern type system improvements over C++. |
Performance | High performance, runs on .NET runtime; performance close to C# and other .NET languages. | Aims for performance comparable to or better than C++, suitable for systems programming. |
Libraries and frameworks | Access to .NET ecosystem, including a wide range of libraries and frameworks. | Intended to interoperate with C++ libraries; ecosystem is nascent and still under development. |
Community and support | Established community with Microsoft backing, good documentation, and active forums. | Very new, experimental language with a small and growing community; limited support and resources. |
Learning curve | Moderate to steep, especially for those new to functional programming. | Designed to be familiar to C++ developers; learning curve depends on C++ experience, but language is still evolving. |
