This free online converter lets you convert code from VBA to Nim in a click of a button. To use this converter, take the following steps -
Characteristic | VBA | Nim |
---|---|---|
Syntax | Similar to classic BASIC, verbose, English-like, designed for ease of use in Office macros. | Python-like, indentation-based, concise, modern, supports metaprogramming. |
Paradigm | Primarily imperative and event-driven, with some object-oriented features. | Multi-paradigm: supports procedural, object-oriented, functional, and metaprogramming. |
Typing | Dynamically typed, with optional static typing using 'Dim' and type declarations. | Statically typed with type inference, strong and safe typing. |
Performance | Interpreted, relatively slow, suitable for automating Office tasks but not for high-performance applications. | Compiled to C, C++, or JavaScript, produces fast executables, close to C in performance. |
Libraries and frameworks | Rich integration with Microsoft Office applications, limited external libraries. | Growing standard library, supports C libraries, package manager (Nimble), fewer frameworks than mainstream languages. |
Community and support | Large legacy user base, extensive documentation for Office automation, declining active development. | Smaller but active and growing community, modern documentation, increasing third-party support. |
Learning curve | Gentle learning curve, especially for Office users, designed for non-programmers. | Moderate learning curve, easier for those familiar with Python or statically typed languages. |
