I've never tried Go. It's not a C replacement so I never bothered.
From what very little I've seen, it kind of makes me think of C# but for Unix. And I don't hate C#, it just has that "he's a more productive way of doing things that still has that spirit of the old way a little bit" kind of feeling similar to C#.

Based. But honestly D solves all the gaps of C. No more guaranteed ability to segfault on printfs, while still being ABI compatible with C and able to compile and link with it natively.

>>107980147
You can do all of that in D, you can avoid the D runtime and do all the C things at the exact same C level of power and baremetal programming and optimizations and inline assembly, with all the added D sweetness on top of the world's best metaprogramming and reflection and templating and compile time memory safety without losing a thing. You don't have to do any of the C++-replacement stuff.

>>107980119
printf() is antique library function - not the part of the language. the nearest gap i see is VARGs aka variadic arguments created to serve those printfs, they are retarded and should be refactored (no need to create a new brand language to do such upgrade)

>>107980240
properties that refactored VARGs must have:

- getting a number of arguments
- getting type of an argument
- getting an argument by an index

this can be implemented via placement of VARG description structure into the stack before the call, as types are static/known at compile time - this operation is made by compiler and read by similar to va_* macroses. the description itself may be developed with the help of AI

which compiler's author could agree to get croudfounded $100.000 or maybe some corpo would pay it for the upgrade? who knows. it shouldnt be left to those committee retards, they are hopeless. plus, "standards" are secondary, public must see it as a vaccine from retardation. much like public vaccinates in those riots now, they could be solved easily with the I-act, but its a show, hehehe, let the retards see whats happening happening

It's the literal standard. A program using
>void main
is undefined behavior, and you only have your compiler to thank for automatically and silently fixing up your retardation. It's only that modern OSes have process control and so program exit happens through syscalls, and so the compiler has room to juggle shit in the init subroutine which calls main (and sets up/flushes the standard library buffers) before exiting. If you were programming on an old machine that simply jumps into main at program start, your program may have returned an erroneous error code on some machines, which can be alright, or it fucking could fucking have fucking corrupted the fucking OS's fucking stack. If you want to program in C, READ THE FUCKING STANDARD. The OS expects a return code, and it's going to take it whether you like it or not.

>>107981268
you're always returning an exit code. if you have void main(), then the value of exit code shall be whatever was in a specific register, usually the first generic register, like RAX on x86_64.

>>107982201
>shall be whatever was in a specific register, usually the first generic register
that depends on the ABI. The ABI may expect all return values on stack, in which case the problem is much worse >>107982158

Can you show any reason to use C but not C++
unless you target some niche platform, probably a rare DSP system or microcontroller that actually doesn't have C++.

C on anything 16-bit or faster, Forth on 8-bit micros and embedded.

>>107982158
Your screenshot says it's implementation-defined, not UB. Many implementations support void main.
Realistically any compiler not smart enough to warn you about a signature it doesn't support won't do anything worse than using an uninitialized byte as the exit code.

>>107986282
not her, and not to nitpick, but imo the wording seems to imply that the return value must always be an int, but that the parameters may be some other implementation defined API (e.g., you can pass envp)

>>107982158
this "standard" is called LIBC runtime, the program entry point may be called

void master() {...

and it may set exit code properly with, say ExitProcess(123) on windows. it is the compiler which injects the binary with **REAL** entry that calls your "standard" int main and sets the return code.

LIBC is antique and must be evolved into explict runtime, otherwise the language keep on fading out to irrelevance.

>>107986432
I see. I've been a C99 user for long and so my only exposure is how it's worded in N1256. Good to know that it's implementation defined.

>>107987216
>LIBC runtime
That is not the language spec. The 'language' standard defines conditions in which a program should behave correctly on all systems that support a correct implementation. Someone exploiting a bug in a particular version of a runtime isn't a "standard", similarly to how behavior exhibited by a runtime isn't a "standard". That's the most disingenuous.

>and it may set exit code properly with, say ExitProcess(123)
It's not about setting the exit code correctly, it's about setting it correctly in all valid return conditions. exit() is a part of the stdlib too.

>>107977984
wot book

>>107987328
language defines language. operational conditions are defined by OS. the LIBC or stdlib or "standard" may abstract those conditions some on compiler side (by injecting libc runtime code into binary), some via providing exit() wrapper.

a good explicit runtime doesnt need it. a module for that explicit runtime doesnt need it. a standalone (proper) module aka library - doesnt need it.

thise days it MAY be used for educational purposes or for quick-slapping small programs, when there is no such advanced runtime yet. otherwise, use of LIBC or the "standard" should be strongly discouraged.

My company has a zero tolerance on AI code. It's a defence company though

>>107983330
Yeah? A lot of shit you're ment to do in C is pointless when the compiler is smart enough to fix your laziness. The point is it's the standard, it's bad practice to do it an any other way. It's the difference between reading a text message and reading an academic journal, one is very casual and care free and the other is professional. If you're doing this to be professional (and if you're using C in current year you should be), use professional standards.

If you want to write lazy code where all the burden of optimization and professionalism is placed on the compiler / interpreter, use python or js/ts. This isn't 1980 anymore, just about anything that can be written in C, can be written in a high level language with more safety guardrails.If you're using C it's because you want more control, and you want more responsibility, so with that you should take the responsibility to be professional.
