No, RC is GC. Most people think of Python as GCed language, and it uses mostly RC. Any runtime that uses mark & sweep today may elect to use RC for some subset of the heap at some point in a future design, if that makes more sense. The mix of marking GC vs refcounting GC shouldn't affect the semantics of the program. |
