gollark: It also has good C interoperability, as it compiles to C or C++.
gollark: It has garbage collection, but you can use the ORC collector to make it basically do reference counting (except on possibly cyclic things).
gollark: Also, can we get ABR in here?
gollark: Anyway, Nim is quite cool. It is like Python but compiled and more strongly typed, plus macrons.
