Key differences between Groovy and C

CharacteristicGroovyC
SyntaxGroovy has a syntax similar to Java with additional features like closures and dynamic typing.C has a syntax that is more low-level and requires manual memory management.
ParadigmGroovy is a dynamically-typed, object-oriented language that supports both procedural and functional programming paradigms.C is a statically-typed, procedural language.
TypingGroovy is dynamically-typed, meaning variable types are determined at runtime.C is statically-typed, meaning variable types are determined at compile-time.
PerformanceGroovy is generally slower than C due to its dynamic nature and runtime type checking.C is a low-level language that is known for its performance and efficiency.
Libraries and frameworksGroovy has access to a wide range of Java libraries and frameworks.C has a smaller ecosystem of libraries and frameworks compared to Groovy.
Community and supportGroovy has an active community and good support from the Apache Software Foundation.C has a large and established community with extensive documentation and support.
Learning curveGroovy has a relatively low learning curve, especially for developers familiar with Java.C has a steeper learning curve, especially for developers new to low-level programming.
