@bamdmux yes 4 is very minor.. they changed String back to an array so you can do for c in “String” rather than in “String”.characters.. that was the headliner!

Kotlin's 2017 release (so far): Coroutines, destructing in lambdas, and type aliases

Swift's 2017 release: Strings are char arrays!

Swift already has type aliases, does not have coroutines but is a decent language for concurrency overall, way better than Java.. wonder if they have slowed down because Lattner is gone..

That and probably because of the backlash of the 2-3 "update"
