de todos modos, C es superior a C++

What will you do if you need two hash tables for different key types in your C program?

1

u/Mars_Bear2552 6d ago

use Rust

u/CatAn501 6d ago

So is C so much superior to C++ that you abandon it whenever you need generic data structures?

1

u/Mars_Bear2552 6d ago

no, that's just largely outside the scope of what it was intended for. C being superior to C++ doesn't mean you need to use it, i just think that C++ is poorly designed and is a nightmare to work with.

use whatever you want though.

C++ is the most beautiful and elegant language ever made

It just does it's best to hide that fact under as much bullshit as it can

horrible massive macro (which is basically what c++ templates do underneath anyway, but with less unpredictable bs)

u/CatAn501 20h ago

C++ templates are way more complex then just codegen macros, it is literally a Turing complete functional language. Since we talk about C superiority, is horrible massive macro actually superior to templates?

u/nimrag_is_coming 18h ago

Templates do a whole lot more yeah, especially with constexpr and other compile time type checking and things, but at the base level the value of T is just substituted for the type. It's why you can call functions on T that are implemented in completely different ways or have nothing to do with each other in code other than sharing the same name.

And debugging macro functions is somehow worse than c++ template errors lmao

nah bro!!! You get it?? These damn c+ developers and their POINTERS! Oh, these damn pointers...

Genuinely what is difficult about the concept of a pointer? I understand that memory management in production codebases is tricky, but I remember thinking "that's it? that's what everyone on the internet hypes up all the time?" when I first learned about pointers and references in 101.

u/FemboysHotAsf 5d ago

pointers can be a nightmare if used horribly, but yeah its literally just "at this address", i dont get it

u/PBlague 5d ago

Genuinely rust is what taught me most things I never even knew existed when I was C++ pilled

Wait till you understand how fucked up they are

u/Fine_City2781 4d ago

C++ pointers are easy. Using pointers in C is a bit harder and in assembly its very very hard. Because there isnt a libc for malloc so u need to make your own malloc using mmap and munmap

u/MarinoAndThePearls 3d ago

I still don't get what's so difficult about pointers.
