Key differences between Golang and Ruby
Characteristic | Golang | Ruby |
---|---|---|
Syntax | Golang has a C-like syntax that is easy to read and write. It uses curly braces and semicolons to separate statements. | Ruby has a more flexible syntax that is easy to read and write. It uses keywords and end statements to separate blocks of code. |
Paradigm | Golang is a statically typed, compiled language that supports procedural, object-oriented, and functional programming paradigms. | Ruby is a dynamically typed, interpreted language that supports object-oriented and functional programming paradigms. |
Typing | Golang is a statically typed language, which means that variable types are checked at compile time. | Ruby is a dynamically typed language, which means that variable types are checked at runtime. |
Performance | Golang is known for its high performance and low memory usage, making it a good choice for building scalable applications. | Ruby is not as performant as Golang, but it is still a popular choice for building web applications and prototypes. |
Libraries and frameworks | Golang has a growing number of libraries and frameworks, including popular ones like Gin, Echo, and Beego. | Ruby has a large number of libraries and frameworks, including popular ones like Ruby on Rails, Sinatra, and Hanami. |
Community and support | Golang has a growing community and is backed by Google, which provides strong support for the language. | Ruby has a large and active community, with many open source projects and resources available. |
Learning curve | Golang has a relatively low learning curve, especially for developers with experience in C-like languages. | Ruby has a relatively low learning curve, with a syntax that is easy to read and write. |
