Zig

Zig is a systems programming language that emphasizes simplicity, performance, and safety. It has gained attention for its minimalistic approach and powerful features. Zig is particularly well-suited for developing low-level systems and applications where control over hardware and performance are critical. Features of Zig No hidden control flow: Zig has no hidden control flow, which means that the behavior of the program is predictable and easy to understand. This makes debugging and optimization easier. Error handling: Zig has a unique error handling mechanism that is designed to be simple, efficient, and safe. It uses compile-time checks to ensure that errors are handled correctly. Compile-time execution: Zig supports compile-time execution, which allows developers to run code at compile time to generate data or perform computations. This feature can be used to generate code, perform optimizations, or validate data. Memory Management: Zig provides fine-grained control over memory management, allowing developers to manage memory allocation and deallocation manually. This can help reduce memory overhead and improve performance. Interop with C: Zig has excellent interoperability with C, allowing developers to call C functions and use C libraries directly. This makes it easy to integrate Zig code with existing C codebases. Variables In Zig, variables are declared using the var keyword followed by the variable name and type. Zig supports type inference, allowing developers to omit the type when it can be inferred from the value. ...
