Rust
Rust is a good language to write (bioinformatics) software in, with a focus on efficiency and reliability. You will be able to analyze large (bioinformatics) data sets very quickly, with inherently safe memory management and easy parallelization. It has extensive documentation and a very active user community.
learning Rust
The language website already has a lot of resources, for example:
- Getting Started with Rust
- Learn Rust, with all of the "official" learning materials
- the Rust Playground, for trying out code in an interactive browser session
And then, there is a public 4-day course for learning Rust, called "Comprehensive Rust". While this does require that you already have some programming experience and is originally meant as a course to be taught, you can nevertheless work through it at your own pace.
