This free online converter lets you convert code from Pascal to Zig in a click of a button. To use this converter, take the following steps -
| Characteristic | Pascal | Zig |
|---|---|---|
| Syntax | Uses verbose, English-like syntax with explicit begin/end blocks and semicolons; designed for readability and teaching. | Uses concise, C-like syntax with modern features; emphasizes clarity and explicitness without unnecessary verbosity. |
| Paradigm | Primarily procedural, with some object-oriented extensions in later versions. | Imperative and procedural, with strong emphasis on manual control and minimal abstraction. |
| Typing | Statically typed, strong type checking. | Statically typed, strong and safe type system with compile-time evaluation. |
| Performance | Good performance for its time, but modern compilers and optimizations are limited. | High performance, comparable to C/C++, with focus on zero-cost abstractions and manual memory management. |
| Libraries and frameworks | Limited modern libraries and frameworks; mostly legacy or educational resources. | Growing but still limited ecosystem; can interoperate with C libraries easily. |
| Community and support | Small, mostly legacy or academic community; limited active development. | Active and growing community, especially among systems programmers; responsive core team. |
| Learning curve | Gentle learning curve, designed for teaching programming fundamentals. | Moderate learning curve; simple core concepts but requires understanding of low-level programming. |
