C# is for bed-wetting nancy types. C++ is the One True Language

[Chris Maunder]

Well, you certainly don't want facts getting in the way of a good argument.

That's just wrong. So very wrong.

1s and 0s. If you need any of that fancy alphabet crud then you're a bed wetting liberal.

I'm not a stalker, I just know things. Oh by the way, you're out of milk.

I used to work with a guy who could write machine code programs direct in IBM VM; he was a real programmer.

I've spent most of my career in Progress, and have been back in there a few times in recent days. Can I have a new forum just for me please.

Do want to stop by my place of work today for a couple of minutes and coide up the crap I'm working on at the minute? It would save me doing UML diagrams n stuff. thanks :-D

And when the C#'ers and C++'ers take each other out, all that will be left in the aftermath will be the VB.NET chosen. :laugh:

Fortunately for me I just happen to be a bed-wetting nancy type.

and your point? ;-)

Sorry, FORTH is the one true language. You can intermix low level assembler and high level FORTH. The language can be multitasking, not the OS. You can extend the compiler as you are compiling the program. Back in the early 90's I'd compile 300K programs in 30 seconds, while the C compiler would take hours. And the application could still be interactive allowing new commands to be created while the program was running instead of the old, tired, edit-compile-run cycle every time you needed to make a minor change. Unit testing is a breeze since each verb (command) is stack based, so no scaffolding is required, just load up the stack with the input parameters, run the command, check the stack for the expected output. Multiple programmers can work on their sections and then just zipper the different files together without fear of name collisions. A project I initially estimated would take 9 months was operational in 6 weeks because we were able to fling code at the wall and it all stuck.
