| Characteristic | Raku | VBA |
|---|---|---|
| Syntax | Modern, flexible, expressive, supports multiple programming styles, and allows for custom operators and grammars. | Simple, verbose, similar to classic BASIC, designed for ease of use within Microsoft Office applications. |
| Paradigm | Multi-paradigm: supports procedural, object-oriented, functional, concurrent, and reactive programming. | Primarily procedural and event-driven, with limited object-oriented features. |
| Typing | Gradual typing: supports both dynamic and static typing, with optional type constraints. | Dynamically typed by default, with optional static typing using 'Dim ... As' declarations. |
| Performance | Generally slower than many mainstream languages due to its flexibility and features; suitable for scripting and prototyping. | Optimized for automation within Microsoft Office; fast for small tasks but not suitable for high-performance applications. |
| Libraries and frameworks | Growing ecosystem with modules available via the Raku ecosystem (zef); not as extensive as more established languages. | Rich set of libraries for automating Microsoft Office applications; limited outside the Microsoft ecosystem. |
| Community and support | Active but small community; good documentation and some online resources, but less mainstream support. | Large user base due to widespread use in business; extensive documentation, forums, and tutorials. |
| Learning curve | Steep, due to its rich feature set and flexibility; familiarity with Perl helps but not required. | Gentle, especially for beginners and those familiar with Microsoft Office; designed for non-programmers. |
