Description

The syntax of Crystal draws significant inspiration from Ruby, making it both intuitive to read and straightforward to write, which particularly benefits developers who are already familiar with Ruby due to a reduced learning curve. Additionally, Crystal employs static type-checking, ensuring that any type-related errors are identified early during compilation, thus preventing issues that could arise at runtime. To maintain simplicity and cleanliness within the language, it incorporates built-in type inference, meaning that developers often do not need to include explicit type annotations. In Crystal, all types are inherently non-nilable, and available variables are defined as a combination of the type and nil, allowing the compiler to perform checks for null references at compile time. Furthermore, Crystal features a robust macro system designed for metaprogramming, which encompasses a variety of functionalities, including basic templating, AST inspection, type inspection, and the capability to execute arbitrary external programs. This powerful macro system enhances the language's flexibility and allows for more dynamic code generation and manipulation.

Description

Objective-C serves as the primary programming language for developing applications on both OS X and iOS platforms. As an extension of the C programming language, it offers robust object-oriented features alongside a dynamic runtime environment. The language retains the syntax, basic types, and control flow statements of C, while introducing additional syntax for class and method definitions. Furthermore, it enhances language capabilities with built-in support for managing object graphs and utilizing object literals, allowing for dynamic typing and binding that defers many tasks until runtime. While creating applications for OS X or iOS, developers predominantly engage with objects, which are instances of Objective-C classes; some are provided by frameworks like Cocoa or Cocoa Touch, while others are custom-built by the developer. Ultimately, mastering Objective-C can significantly improve your ability to create sophisticated and efficient applications for Apple’s platforms.
