Rust: works

Zig: segmentation fault

Also no higher-order functions like map, filter, reduce etc.

Really weird design decision for a brand new language.

Comptime is pretty dope tho, I wish Rust had that instead of relying on macros so much.

So how is Zig different from C or C++, then?

Much nicer than C, much simpler than C++, much less cruft than both.
