Thanks again for this tutorial. Although somewhat esoteric, it is enjoyable following you on this journey into Rust. It sounds like it has a lot of potential, but its promoters seem to need a bit of growing up to do yet.
Have you heard of the book "Seven Languages in Seven Weeks"? They dive into the languages enough to get some impression of other programming paradigms. I once studied Prolog aeons ago, which I found to be very elegant in its structural approach to First Order Logic on my Masters degree.
No, I don't know it. After this I plan to tackle "Go"! Not sure what other popular languages there are. I keep thinking maybe courses on stuff like Oracle DB would sell well, but such a boring topic.
Au Contraire! There is another itch I would like to scratch, besides learning C, and that is to create a well normalized database. In 2001 I worked for well, not allowed to say openly, but one of the tasks was to prepare data for an Oracle database, which I did, but never got the chance to set it up! This book was the classic at the time and still is. https://www.amazon.com/Database-Design-Mere-Mortals-Anniversary/dp/0136788041
