General discussion • Re: A Pi Pie Chart

You could switch to a Roman numbering system rather than the Arabic numbering system. This may help reduce confusion.

That sounds like a plan. Do you know a Rust Crate that prints Roman numbers?

I'm having trouble installing Rust since

If you’re using Linux or macOS, open a terminal and enter the following command:

Code:

$ curl --proto '=https' --tlsv1.2 https://sh.rustup.rs -sSf | sh

https://doc.rust-lang.org/book/ch01-01- ... ation.html

Is Rust really a secure programming language? Executing shell scripts through curl sounds less secure than writing the whole thing in C.

A 10/10 security problem with the Rust standard library was reported this week.

Although this doesn't affect any existing Roman numeral printing crates, Fido has issued a freeze on all further Rust development. The purported reason: The standard library is too immature to rely on for making critical Pi charts.

When I pointed out FidoBasic appears even less mature, the dog developer growled over optimistic crustaceans overlook the fact that Basic doesn't even have a standard library. Though crabby I'm unconvinced that I am over optimistic.
