Key differences between Nim and C
| Characteristic | Nim | C |
|---|---|---|
| Syntax | Python-like, clean and readable with indentation-based blocks. | Curly-brace syntax, more verbose and lower-level. |
| Paradigm | Multi-paradigm: procedural, object-oriented, functional, and metaprogramming. | Procedural and structured programming. |
| Typing | Statically typed with type inference. | Statically typed, explicit type declarations required. |
| Performance | Comparable to C, compiles to efficient C code. | Very high performance, close to hardware. |
| Libraries and frameworks | Smaller ecosystem, but can use C libraries via FFI. | Extensive libraries and mature ecosystem. |
| Community and support | Smaller, growing community with less mainstream support. | Large, established community with abundant resources. |
| Learning curve | Gentler learning curve, especially for those familiar with Python. | Steeper learning curve due to manual memory management and lower-level concepts. |
