Objetos & Structs

Diferentes linguagens têm diferentes formas de representar dados estruturados. Veja como objetos, structs e construções similares funcionam em diferentes linguagens.

Criação de Objetos/Structs

// Object literal

Principais Conclusões

Struct vs classe vs dicionário -- Swift, Rust, Go, Zig e C usam structs como contêineres de dados primários para campos nomeados. JavaScript, Python, PHP e Ruby frequentemente usam objetos simples ou dicionários (ex: { name: "John", age: 30 }) para dados ad-hoc. Java e C# favorecem classes para dados estruturados. Use structs quando precisar de schemas fixos e verificação em tempo de compilação; use dicionários quando o schema é dinâmico ou você está construindo configuração ou dados similares a JSON.
Semântica de valor vs referência -- Structs de Swift e Rust são tipos de valor: let b = a copia os dados. Objetos de Java, C# e JavaScript são tipos de referência: b = a compartilha a mesma instância. Structs de Go são valores, mas são comumente passados como ponteiros (*Person) para mutação. Semântica de valor evita mutação compartilhada acidental; semântica de referência reduz cópias. Escolha tipos de valor (Swift, Rust) para comportamento previsível e segurança de threads; tipos de referência quando precisar de estado mutável compartilhado.
Anexação de métodos -- Rust usa impl Person { fn greet(&self) {...} }; Go usa sintaxe de receiver func (p Person) Greet() string; Zig incorpora funções dentro de structs. JavaScript e Python anexam métodos a classes. C usa funções externas como greet(&person). O padrão afeta como você organiza o código: blocos impl co-localizam lógica com dados em Rust; Go separa métodos de definições de tipo. Prefira linguagens com sintaxe de métodos ao construir modelos de domínio.
Alternativas leves -- @dataclass de Python, record de C# e record de Java fornecem definições compactas para contêineres de dados sem boilerplate. JavaScript e Ruby usam object literals ou hashes. Para DTOs, objetos de configuração ou payloads de API, prefira dataclasses ou records; para lógica de negócio rica, use classes ou structs completas com métodos.
Serialização e reflexão -- Rust e Go usam tags de struct (#[derive(Serialize)], `json:"name"`) para JSON. dataclass de Python e asdict() tornam a serialização fácil. C e Zig exigem mapeamento manual. Se você frequentemente serializa para JSON ou outros formatos, favoreça linguagens com suporte built-in (Go, Rust com serde, Python, C#); para runtime mínimo, C ou Zig podem ser aceitáveis.
