what happened to that?

counter: int = 0;

Ugly Pascal shit straight out of Russian universities.

a: [50] int; // An array of 50 integers

uninitialized arrays breeding heisenbugs? way to go!

for i : 0..n-1

using same for keyword for unrelated loops will definitely improve readability.

Also, I can implement that even in C99:
#define GENSYM2(N,L) __##N##L
#define GENSYM1(N,L) GENSYM2(N,L)
#define GENSYM(N) GENSYM1(N,__LINE__)
#define times(I,N) for(int I=0, GENSYM(C)=(N); I<GENSYM(C); I++)

He's still doing streams about adding features to the compiler every now and then, but apparently he doesn't want to release it until it's production ready and has been beta tested by some select few people of his choosing.

tell him about Haskell.

the last thing the world needs is another C descendant language

>>4
Thats cute, but debugging 3+ layers of this is worse than Lisp and it slows down compilation more than C++ meta-templates

>>7
it is Pascal descendant.

>>7
the world needs a better c.
a modern and more comfy programming language with blazing compile times made by a great programmer for his own (successful) company.
and it can be debugged in visual studio.

you know the language is a joke when the answer to how do i debug is haha just use printf, debuggers are bad anyway.
or they point you to some so shitty command line debugger like man you can kinda use gdb haha i use it when printf doesn't works lol.
or hey it kinda works with windbg even tho that's a c++ debugger meaning anyone using it will have to learn c++ and windows idiocy anyways.

the best way to boost programmer productivity is to minimize compile and debug time and make data structure changes doable.

Int

lol, are you referring to Rust?

freeze my anus

It's a wizard
