Key differences between Objective_C and Kotlin
Characteristic | Objective_C | Kotlin |
---|---|---|
Syntax | Objective-C uses a syntax similar to C with added Smalltalk-style messaging syntax. | Kotlin has a more modern and concise syntax compared to Objective-C. |
Paradigm | Objective-C is primarily an object-oriented programming language with support for procedural programming. | Kotlin is a statically-typed programming language that supports both object-oriented and functional programming paradigms. |
Typing | Objective-C is a dynamically-typed language. | Kotlin is a statically-typed language. |
Performance | Objective-C has good performance due to its low-level nature and direct access to C libraries. | Kotlin has comparable performance to Java as it runs on the Java Virtual Machine (JVM). |
Libraries and frameworks | Objective-C has a rich set of libraries and frameworks, especially for iOS and macOS development. | Kotlin has access to the vast ecosystem of Java libraries and frameworks. |
Community and support | Objective-C has a large community and good support, especially for iOS and macOS development. | Kotlin has a growing community and good support, especially for Android development. |
Learning curve | Objective-C has a steeper learning curve compared to Kotlin due to its complex syntax and memory management. | Kotlin has a relatively easier learning curve compared to Objective-C. |
