Is Zig as safe as Rust?

It's a common question in the world of programming languages: "Is Zig as SAFE as Rust?" Both languages aim to provide a high level of safety, but they approach it in different ways. Rust is known for its strong type system and ownership model, which help prevent common programming errors like null pointers and memory leaks. Zig, on the other hand, aims for simplicity and readability while still providing safety guarantees. But can Zig truly match Rust's level of safety? That's what we'll explore in this discussion. Join me as we dive into the differences between these two languages and see if Zig can live up to the safety standards set by Rust.
