@lupyuen Can I ask you what's the advantages of Rust over Python? I was going to start learning Python and discovered Rust. I'm not sure where to start. I'm new at development and thought maybe you could help me... 😊

@dflag84 Well they are for different purposes really... Python is easier to learn and it's good for writing high-level programs with relatively few lines of code.

Rust is somewhat more difficult because it's meant for high-performance, complex programs that run fast on microcontrollers and servers.

@lupyuen So Rust is more a low level? More like for OS's instead of programs or apps? But can we makes apps or programs with Python?

@dflag84 Yes Rust is a Systems Programming Language, used for coding Operating Systems and Web Browsers (Firefox). If you're coding for microcontrollers, Rust performs better than Python since it's lower level and closer to bare metal

@lupyuen Good! Thanks for the crash course! 👍😊 Really appreciated
