06:00:06FromDiscord<zkopt_> many people think that nim is fast python or easy and safe C↵but that's wrong↵nim is modern pascal lol
06:00:20FromDiscord<zkopt_> but I can't find where is similar with pascal lol
06:00:28FromDiscord<zkopt_> (edit) "with" => "to"
06:01:01FromDiscord<zkopt_> I think nim is just a holy mixture of programming languages
06:01:51FromDiscord<zkopt_> Ada, Python, JS, Pascal, C++, Rust, LISP etc... wow
06:02:03FromDiscord<zkopt_> (edit) "LISP" => "LISP, Modula, Oberon"

06:24:21*insanescholar joined #nim
06:32:06FromDiscord<Laylie> 3 of the languages you list there are pascals so it would seem that nim is pretty pascally
06:42:21FromDiscord<dykatz> Pascal, Modula, Oberon, Ada?
06:43:05FromDiscord<dykatz> Maybe we need a Pascal like language alignment chart
06:46:47FromDiscord<Laylie> huh, make it 4
06:48:17*acidsys joined #nim
06:56:53FromDiscord<zkopt_> In reply to @Laylie "3 of the languages": but I don't feel pascal in nim's syntax

07:44:05FromDiscord<dykatz> You feel is more using `result =` instead of `return`
07:44:10FromDiscord<dykatz> (edit) "is" => "it"
08:25:00*iwuvmika quit (Remote host closed the connection)
08:43:51FromDiscord<tempestro> the `type` syntax, distinguishing between procedures and functions (though what that actually means differs compared to pascal), the whole way discriminated unions are written etc
08:44:04FromDiscord<tempestro> sent a code paste, see https://paste.rs/lm5wg
09:55:09FromDiscord<mratsim> In reply to @zkopt_ "but I don't feel": Nim was bootstraped from Pascal. And is very inspired by Modula and Oberon

10:24:17FromDiscord<.astraea.san> playground is down by the way
11:06:45FromDiscord<Laylie> > how discriminated unions are written↵didn't know that was a pascalism \:o

11:48:14FromDiscord<b0rsuk> In reply to @egbert_37195 "Hard call, can identify": I think I'm language explorer / deep diver, with the emphasis on the former. I admire deep divers but can't honestly say I qualify as one in any particular language.
