This free online converter lets you convert code from Gleam to C in a click of a button. To use this converter, take the following steps -
Characteristic | Gleam | C |
---|---|---|
Syntax | Modern, concise, inspired by ML-family languages, with significant whitespace and pattern matching. | Procedural, uses braces and semicolons, low-level, minimalistic, and close to hardware. |
Paradigm | Functional, immutable by default, strong emphasis on pure functions. | Procedural, imperative, supports structured programming. |
Typing | Statically typed with strong type inference and no nulls. | Statically typed but less strict, allows implicit conversions and manual memory management. |
Performance | Runs on BEAM (Erlang VM), optimized for concurrency and reliability, not as fast as native code. | Compiles to native machine code, highly performant and efficient for system-level programming. |
Libraries and frameworks | Limited ecosystem, mainly interoperates with Erlang and Elixir libraries. | Extensive libraries and frameworks, especially for systems, embedded, and cross-platform development. |
Community and support | Small but growing community, limited resources and support. | Large, mature, and well-established community with abundant resources and support. |
Learning curve | Gentle for those familiar with functional programming, approachable syntax. | Steep, especially due to manual memory management and low-level concepts. |
