Key differences between R and Carbon
| Characteristic | R | Carbon |
|---|---|---|
| Syntax | Specialized, concise syntax for statistical analysis and data manipulation; less strict structure. | C-like, modern, and explicit syntax designed for clarity and safety; more structured. |
| Paradigm | Primarily functional and procedural, with some object-oriented features. | Multi-paradigm, supporting procedural, object-oriented, and generic programming. |
| Typing | Dynamically typed, with implicit type conversions. | Statically typed, with strong type safety and explicit type declarations. |
| Performance | Interpreted, generally slower, optimized for data analysis rather than raw speed. | Compiled, designed for high performance and efficiency, comparable to C++. |
| Libraries and frameworks | Extensive ecosystem for statistics, data science, and visualization (e.g., ggplot2, dplyr). | Limited libraries and frameworks as it is still experimental and under development. |
| Community and support | Large, mature community with extensive documentation and support resources. | Small, emerging community with limited support due to its early stage. |
| Learning curve | Moderate for those with statistical background; can be steep for general programming. | Steep, especially for beginners; familiarity with C++ or similar languages is helpful. |
