Key differences between C and Rust

CharacteristicCRust
SyntaxC has a simple syntax with a focus on low-level programming.Rust has a more complex syntax with a focus on memory safety and modern programming concepts.
ParadigmC is a procedural language with some support for object-oriented programming.Rust is a multi-paradigm language with support for functional and imperative programming, as well as object-oriented programming.
TypingC is a statically typed language with weak typing.Rust is a statically typed language with strong typing and type inference.
PerformanceC is known for its high performance and low-level control over system resources.Rust is also known for its high performance, but with added safety features that can sometimes impact performance.
Libraries and frameworksC has a large number of libraries and frameworks available, particularly for system-level programming.Rust has a growing number of libraries and frameworks available, with a focus on safety and performance.
Community and supportC has a large and established community with many resources available for learning and support.Rust has a smaller but growing community with a focus on safety and modern programming concepts.
Learning curveC has a relatively steep learning curve, particularly for beginners with no prior programming experience.Rust has a steep learning curve, particularly for beginners with no prior programming experience, but with added safety features that can make it easier to write correct code.
