‘Philosophy’

• No hidden behavior
• No implicit magic (auto is highly discouraged)
• Errors should be as loud and early as possible, not console filling variant messes
• If something is complex, it is documented as complex

Quantum C favors clarity over convenience, and explicitness over brevity.

Non-goals

• Quantum C is not trying to do ‘hand-holding’ or be beginner - friendly.
  It is designed to be used, taught, and to teach — and this can be verified directly:
  simply pass -a -tkn -r before any input file to see the compiler output that demonstrates all three.

• Quantum C does not hide memory costs
• Quantum C does not auto-correct ambiguous logic
• Quantum C does not make ambiguous logic
• Quantum C does not allow ambiguous logic `

  Versioning

Quantum C uses a feature-based versioning scheme.

• Minor versions indicate new language features
• Patch versions indicate bug fixes and documentation changes

Legacy Versions

All legacy v* versions are deprecated. This includes the old release line up to v12.0.0.

Current Versions

The current release line starts at x0.15.0.

Current x* versions are the non-deprecated versions going forward. For example, x1.0.0 is part of the current version line and is distinct from the old legacy v1.0.0.`
