Key differences between Elixir and Golang
Characteristic | Elixir | Golang |
---|---|---|
Syntax | Elixir has a syntax inspired by Ruby and is known for its simplicity and readability. | Golang has a syntax inspired by C and is known for its simplicity and efficiency. |
Paradigm | Elixir is a functional programming language that also supports concurrent and distributed programming. | Golang is a statically typed, compiled language that supports procedural, concurrent, and object-oriented programming. |
Typing | Elixir is dynamically typed, meaning that variable types are checked at runtime. | Golang is statically typed, meaning that variable types are checked at compile time. |
Performance | Elixir is known for its scalability and fault-tolerant design, making it suitable for building highly concurrent and distributed systems. | Golang is known for its fast execution speed and efficient memory management, making it suitable for building high-performance applications. |
