Cant beat this. True low level language. More like asembly and way simpler than anything C like.

Neither C or Python are simple.

Python is simple until you want to distribute something you have made. Then it is not simple.

Pascal is like c but without retarded syntax.

Now this is truly simple.

However, it's a high level language.

this is now a C thread.
anon is now king for a day. what would you do to fix C? std lib retardation? syntax? under/overspecification of something?

C can't be fixed it should be burned.

Remove the ugly C syntax and use something like Lua or Pascal based syntax, add support for linear types and defer, and basic (single inheritance) OOP. Macros should be removed and replaced by a compile time VM, this compile time code execution can be used to generate code by modifying the AST using homoiconocity. Namespaces would be good too.

why not take everyone single shortcut you can to get what you want done.

yes, macros should go away. they are either leftover from the time before inlining was a thing or are lazy people writing generic functions- which is a terrible idea for many security reasons.

inheritance 99.999% of the time is the wrong abstraction. the last 25-30 years have proven that and that most programmers cannot handle the responsibility of a language that allows you to do it.

c has namespaces, they just aren't explicit like im guessing you want.

Everyone in my algorythms class hated Pascal and said the syntax was ugly. I liked it, it is so simple, commands are like phrases, like you're speaking with the computer..

What is this schizo shit now? Pip is written in Python so you can easily see it just downloads other Python packages.
