C++ classes are fairly optional but if you're already using cpp then it likely wasn't your choice and neither will the choice of OOP.

Yeah, I like the sweet spot that C++ is in. It can do anything C can but then you have classes and STL and all that on top of it.

once i learned about defer it became a hard requirement. cpp kinda gives me that but other c like languages do it better.

[-] Buddahriffic@lemmy.world 2 points 6 months ago

Yeah, I wish C++ had function/scope epilogs and labeled loops/breaks, too. Those are the cases where the "never use goto" rule can be broken to make better code than adding all of the code that would be required to handle it the "right" way (setting up early exit flags and if statements after each level of nested loop to check the flag).

I learnt Caml in the 90s at university, I was completely lost, in Prolog too.

Polymorphism just goes over my head.

I like polymorphism. Having to have a hundred differently named functions or structs or something that do the same thing but slightly differently in Rust is annoying as hell. Especially with all the underscores you have to type... If Rust were more functional though it'd make that problem go away pretty quickly.

It's not that hard however I think it's absolutely useless and doesn't add any value to the code.

Why typescript? It allows you to make typesafe compositions

OOP was a mistake!
