Professional programmers in C or C++
never use the naive "primite data types" such as
int
or
long
. In either language, you use
stdint.h
types. And yeah there are lots of unprofessional/incompetent C and C++ programmers out there... simply because there's been 50 years during which we've built up a vast incompetence knowledge base with gems such as POSIX and the Winapi type system. What major codes bases are written in Rust, though? —
