Learn ZIG with Real Code Examples

Learn basic syntax and data types

Understand slices, structs, and pointers

Practice error unions and optional types

Use `comptime` for compile-time code

Explore C interop and cross-compilation

Week 1: Syntax, variables, functions

Week 2: Pointers, slices, memory management

Week 3: Error unions and optional types

Week 4: Comptime metaprogramming

Week 5: Cross-compilation and C integration

What makes Zig safer than C?

Explain `comptime` in Zig.

How does Zig handle memory management?

How does Zig interoperate with C?

What are error unions and optional types?

var x: i32 = 42 - declare variable

fn add(a: i32, b: i32) i32 { return a+b; } - function

const slice = []u8{1,2,3} - array/slice

errdefer mem.free(ptr) - error-safe cleanup

comptime { ... } - compile-time execution
