Key differences between Zig and COBOL
| Characteristic | Zig | COBOL |
|---|---|---|
| Syntax | Modern, C-like, minimalistic, and designed for clarity and explicitness. | Verbose, English-like, designed for business readability, and highly structured. |
| Paradigm | Imperative, procedural, with some support for generic programming. | Procedural, with some object-oriented features in later versions, primarily focused on business data processing. |
| Typing | Statically typed, strong type safety, no implicit type conversions. | Statically typed, but with less strict type safety compared to modern languages. |
| Performance | High performance, close to C, suitable for systems programming and low-level tasks. | Optimized for batch and transaction processing, good for business applications but not for low-level or real-time systems. |
| Libraries and frameworks | Limited but growing ecosystem, can interoperate with C libraries. | Mature libraries for business and financial applications, but limited modern frameworks. |
| Community and support | Small but active and growing open-source community. | Established but aging community, strong support in legacy enterprise environments. |
| Learning curve | Moderate, especially for those familiar with C-like languages. | Steep for modern programmers due to its unique syntax and business-oriented concepts. |
