| Characteristic | Pascal | Grain |
|---|---|---|
| Syntax | Pascal uses a verbose, English-like syntax with clear structure, making it easy to read and understand. | Grain has a modern, concise syntax inspired by functional languages like OCaml and ReasonML. |
| Paradigm | Primarily procedural, with some support for structured and modular programming. | Functional-first, supporting immutable data and first-class functions, with some imperative features. |
| Typing | Statically typed with strong type checking at compile time. | Statically typed with type inference and a strong, expressive type system. |
| Performance | Compiled to native code, generally offering good performance for desktop applications. | Compiles to WebAssembly, optimized for web performance but may not match native speeds. |
| Libraries and frameworks | Limited modern libraries; some legacy libraries exist for desktop and educational use. | Growing but limited ecosystem, focused on WebAssembly and web development. |
| Community and support | Small, mostly legacy and educational community with limited modern support. | Small but active and modern community, mainly focused on WebAssembly enthusiasts. |
| Learning curve | Gentle learning curve, often used as a teaching language for beginners. | Moderate learning curve, especially for those new to functional programming concepts. |
