Favorite programming language?
-
C++, but when I've got that crazy look and fire in my eyes Perl. If I was stuck on a desert island C++. :-D
Perl and I don't go well together.. *shiver* I use Perl occasionally for text processing/transformations. Preferred storyline: - I am your father. Search your feelings and you'll know it's the truth. Together we can rule this galaxy like father and son. - Ok dad. Let's kick some butt!

I can't decide between Scheme and C++. Scheme is very clean and simple - elegant IMHO. C++ on the other hand is very complete and powerful. What's your favorite programming language?

C++ Len Holgate www.jetbyte.com The right code, right now.

i'd love to learn some of the 'functional' languages, since they seem so very nice and clean. but, until then, C++ is the only way to go. as a wise man one said: if it ain't C++, it's donkey crap. :) -c

C++. C# is interesting, but I don't like it very much. In fact, I would go as far as to say that C# isn't really a language--it's more like a scripted interface to all the API functions. But, I'm no expert on language design! Marc P.S. I hate namespaces.

Definitely C++ although oddly at night I sometimes dream about writing Z80 assembler again :wtf: Which is odd because I never dream about 6502 or 8080 or Acorn RISC. Obviously I'm confused & need help :confused: JohnJ X| Life is hard and then you die! X| http://www.rainbow-innov.co.uk[^]

I love the concept of Haskell! Thanks for the info. Marc

C++ by a long way, followed by a gaggle consisting of Ada (fond memories...), 68k assembly language (hey, I'm a masochist geek with a yen for optimization measured by the processor cycle :-D, driven by the necessities of woefully underpowered realtime embedded systems!) and JScript...so long as it's hosted by Windows Scripting Host, so I've got regular expressions, the FileSystemObject and all the lovely things COM gives you ;P.

Prolog, man! Okay, just kidding. C++ is my favorite. (scheme(has(too(many(parentheses))))) I do like Perl for the occasional odd task or for Web stuff. I hear good things about PHP and Python, but have never used either. There are three types of people in this world: those who can count, and those who can't.

(scheme(has(too(many(parentheses)))) ) Good editors can do expression highlighting for you :) Preferred storyline: - I am your father. Search your feelings and you'll know it's the truth. Together we can rule this galaxy like father and son. - Ok dad. Let's kick some butt!

Scheme? Is it this paranthesis festival in mid-august? I must admit, it has something. However, when it's about gettign a job done, I rather command than argue. (i.e. if I prefer the "do this do that" model, rather than "X is Y and Z") C++, definitely. Home is where C++ is. C#: I especially admire that MS did (again) something for the "masses", not some ivory tower revolution. Pascal: If I'm at home at C++, Pascal is where I've grown up. Ah those memories....
