Rust Vs C
Reverse Engineering
What is C
- General-purpose procedural programming language.
- Designed in 1972 by Dennis Ritchie
- Designed to construct utilities running on Linux.
- "You control everything, including memory safety"
What is Rust
- Multi-paradigm programming language designed for productivity and performance.
- Syntactically similar to C++
- Can guarantee memory safety through the borrow checker.
- No garbage collection
- Reference counting is optional
Properties of C
- Procedural language
- Statically typed
- Manually manage memory
- Errors both at compile and run time
Properties of Rust
- Functional Programming Language
- Dynamically typed
- Explicit definition of mutable vs non-mutable variables
- Ownership system
- Errors caught at compile time
