  1. “Rust solves problems associated with C/C++ such as garbage collection and safety.”

    why garbage collector? isn’t c/c++ need the user to define their own implementation of how handling memory? if c/c++ have GC, then people didn’t need to use java incase they didn’t want to bother with to implement on handling the memory as safety and error-free.

    afaik, the language that using GC are java, go, etc.
