getting started with nim programming language tutorial

[@guilherme5094]

I started studying Nim a few months ago and I'm fascinated by this language, it's really amazing. Thanks man👍!

[@chrishayuk]

agree.. it's really simple and clean to use it

I've been going through the Nim track on Exercism and I have been loving it!

4:40 `&` is the concat operator in nim. the reason you can use a comma here is that the `echo` proc takes `varargs[string, `$`]` arguments, which basically means that it takes any amount of arguments, with a type that can be converted to string. ( `echo a, b, c` is the same as `echo(a, b, c)` in nim)

I wonder if this would be good for microcontrollers? I know you can opt-out of the garbage collector which is vital on the tiny micros I use... but I'd like to see if it has to carry around much else of a run-time system.

and it's faster than crystal, so i slightly more like it. except the syntax, i more like ruby-like syntax rather than nim (pascal-like).
