Rust is not syntax compatible with C and that is why I suggest to use C++. If you are not fan of C++, with Rust there are also templates and sometimes even harder errors for life-time than C++ error template instantiation ))) Rust does not fit in 30 years code base written in C like C++ does _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list -- python-dev@python.org To unsubscribe send an email to python-dev-le...@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman3/lists/python-dev.python.org/ Message archived at https://mail.python.org/archives/list/python-dev@python.org/message/NO7EE4CQ5ALKEHTTNCDZ3B36QA7HQXGP/ Code of Conduct: http://python.org/psf/codeofconduct/
