> "Where you see a big difference is TrapC doesn't have malloc. TrapC has new, like C++ does. And so you need to change all your malloc calls. But TrapC doesn't have delete. TrapC does the memory. There's no memory leaks in TrapC because the compiler handles free memory. Also, in that way, it's like Java. Java you call new, but you never call delete."

Word salad aside, how is this achieved? RAII? Some super-secret static analysis? Are some allocation patterns just not allowed?

this part is almost convincing me he's a dingus
