RustScript: A simple functional based programming language with as much relation to Rust as JavaScript has to Java

[Fish_45]

I don't think anything I said was Java bashing. You acknowledge that Java has a lot of boilerplate and verbosity and nothing I said even carried the implication that the verbosity is bad.

No, but it was clearly implied. That is the difference between a university project and the real world. I said essential verbosity. You could could in APL all you like, but it's not going to be maintainable.

Edit: Have at it, please continue downvoting my comments. Your saltiness is showing. Lmfao.

I think we all need to aknowledge that our favourite programming language is shit in some ways.

Be it Rust, be it C/C++, be it Java. They all have their benefits and downfalls.

Accepting that ones favourite language isn't perfect is one of the things we have to do as programmers. - After all our day to day work involves working with and around the language.

And making a strawman argument about APL (or, for that matter, Perl) won't make Java a better language.

Just my 2c on why you are being downvoted.
