Characteristic | OCaml | Carbon |
---|---|---|
Syntax | Functional, ML-family syntax with pattern matching, type inference, and concise expressions. | C++-inspired syntax designed for familiarity to C++ developers, with modern enhancements. |
Paradigm | Primarily functional, with strong support for imperative and object-oriented programming. | Multi-paradigm, focusing on procedural and object-oriented programming, with some functional features. |
Typing | Statically typed with strong type inference and type safety. | Statically typed, aiming for safety and expressiveness, with explicit type annotations. |
Performance | High performance for functional workloads, with efficient native code compilation. | Designed for performance comparable to or better than C++, targeting systems programming. |
Libraries and frameworks | Mature but smaller ecosystem, with libraries for functional programming, web, and systems. | Very limited libraries and frameworks as it is still experimental and under development. |
Community and support | Established academic and industrial community, with good documentation and support. | Emerging community, mostly experimental, with limited support and resources. |
Learning curve | Moderate to steep, especially for those new to functional programming. | Intended to be easy for C++ developers, but currently steep due to lack of resources and maturity. |
