The left side shows all the ridiculous string types C++ developers have to deal with: str
, String
, OsStr
, OsString
, Path
, PathBuf
, Vec<u8>
, &u8
, CString
, CStr
... while the right side shows the elegant simplicity of just using char[]
. It's like bringing a Swiss Army knife to a gunfight when all you needed was a bullet. The string handling complexity in modern languages vs. the old-school C approach is programming's version of "why use many word when few word do trick?"
