Zig: Already More Knowable Than C

This article analyzes the Zig programming language by comparing it to C, using specific code examples from a classic 'I Do Not Know C' exercise. It demonstrates how Zig's explicit nullable types and compile-time checks prevent undefined behavior and common errors found in C, such as null pointer dereferencing and variable redefinition, making programs more robust and knowable.
