Key differences between Raku and COBOL
| Characteristic | Raku | COBOL |
|---|---|---|
| Syntax | Modern, expressive, flexible, supports multiple programming styles, and allows for custom operators and grammars. | Verbose, English-like, rigid, designed for business data processing with a focus on readability. |
| Paradigm | Multi-paradigm: supports procedural, object-oriented, functional, concurrent, and reactive programming. | Primarily procedural, with some object-oriented features in later versions. |
| Typing | Gradually and dynamically typed, with optional static typing and type constraints. | Statically typed, with strong emphasis on data types and record structures. |
| Performance | Generally slower than many mainstream languages due to its flexibility and dynamic features. | Optimized for batch and transaction processing; typically fast for business applications. |
| Libraries and frameworks | Growing ecosystem, but relatively limited compared to mainstream languages; uses the Zef module manager. | Limited modern libraries; relies on legacy codebases and integration with mainframe systems. |
| Community and support | Small but active and enthusiastic community; modern online resources and forums. | Large legacy user base, especially in enterprise and government; support mainly through legacy vendors and specialized forums. |
| Learning curve | Steep, due to its flexibility, rich feature set, and unique syntax. | Moderate, with straightforward syntax but can be verbose and unfamiliar to modern programmers. |
