Should I Rust or should I go?
kerkour.com
"Is Rust a great fit for this project?" I get this question quite frequently so I think it's time to write down my thoughts if it can avoid you some painful and costly mistakes. Short answer: no. Coming from someone who wrote a successful book about Rust (Black Hat Rust)

I think some raised points are relevant…

    I think they introduce new keywords every now and then. Match and async I think?

    Edit: I was wrong, this is done in a backwards compatible manner

      Those doesn’t break backwards compatibility though. Naturally you can’t use match with a python 3.7 interpreter, but what scripts written for python 3.7 wouldn’t work with a 3.11 interpreter?

      I haven’t encountered that issue before, so I’m curious what those problems OP have encountered looks like.

        Huh, ok. I thought something like match = 0 in an old script might break a more recent version.

        But you may very well be correct.

          match isn’t a protected keyword like if is.

          match = 0
match match:
    case 0:
        print(0)
    case _:
        print(1)

          Is legal and will give print out 0.
