Subject: What is the best computer programing language?

Butt ugly ape” remarked Sergeant Johnson always making fun out of the situation even though he had been hit by a spiker round in the arm. He mustered up the strength to continue and the team moved on. The Arbiter informed him that the next room held The Prophet of Truth and this was the final room before extraction. Jun proposed that he takes a shot from a distance the prophet and they all head back to the ship bay for extraction. The team agreed on this and breached the last door…

ATTENTION ALL CPU PROGRAMERS!

What languages do you know?

Which language is the best in in your opinion?

Hardest program you've ever done?

Love your friends, Die laughing.

Watch out. If I post in your thread, chances are it'll die. I've been cursed, and if I kill your thread, I'm sorry.

There isn't a "best". Each language is good for different things.

However, if I'd say most difficult, I'd definitely say Python...

Visual Basic 6 was the best.

I use C/C++ and C# the most.

python for most difficult? I must disagree.

you don't see things like

LPVOID (*pCallbackFunc)(HWND hWnd,UINT uMsg,LPARAM lParam,WPARAM wParam);

in python

I've found Python to be relatively easy thanks to the large number of built in functions and features you can download like Pygame and such.

Assembly is definitely harder ;)

I know Ada, C++, C#, Java, Python, and a little bit of Lisp.

Link or it didn't happen.

You obviously haven't programmed in a low level language.

why should he believe in me?

fun thing to do: writing your own bootloader and mini-kernel is a must.

there is nothing more liberating than having 100% total control over a machine.

want to put something on the screen?

better write to video memory

mov byte [0xB8000],stuff

Pretty sure I'm going to have to do that sort of stuff when I take Unix.

That will be a fun quarter.

He threw down a glove you made the mistake
Of picking it up now you're gone
The choosing of guns or fighting with swords
The choice of weapons is done
He'll tear you apart as soon as you start
You know you don't have a chance.

Best? Can't say there is a "best" one, I enjoy some features in languages such as C#, but I love knowing about my memory and C++ as a whole.

Perhaps. It's going to be another quarter or two before I take it, I'd rather get Concurrency and Networking out of the way first.

  • 12.03.2012 10:10 AM PDT

The people I work with have lots of things to say about COBOL.

  • 12.03.2012 10:24 AM PDT

Just C.

  • 12.03.2012 10:26 AM PDT

Python is considered by most to be the easiest.

I don't think you have ever had to work with plain C In a real project

  • 12.03.2012 10:38 AM PDT

I'm a newb, so I chose Visual Basic.

I've used it to program microcontrollers for a quadrotor. It's used for loads of different embedded systems. That's why I like it.
