Popis: This work analyses the differences in Gas cost consumption for the execution of individual functions between the two Smart Contract (SC) programming languages Solidity and Vyper. For this purpose, SCs for the most basic types ERC-20, MultiSig and Atomic Swap were created for both programming languages. To enable a comparison, it was ensured that a SC fulfills exactly the same task in each programming language. It turns out, that the calculated estimated Gas amount from the compiler is mostly meaningless. There is also no programming language, that is always superior to the other in Gas cost efficiency for each SC type and that Waves can be an alternative.
