      Any one that lets me write the applications I need to write in the smallest amount of time possible, with the greatest accuracy.

        So what does this mean for JSOP? More importantly his colleagues!?!

        Computers have been intelligent for a long time now. It just so happens that the program writers are about as effective as a room full of monkeys trying to crank out a copy of Hamlet.

              Surprisingly (and it did surprise me) C# - if I discount Assembler. Features I'd like added? Not really, but I'd like var removed except for Linq returns.

                              Oh please no! Multiple inheritance opens such a large bag of pain. Interfaces give you that [to some degree] and I don't want any more.

                                  You don't have to use it if you don't like it. But .05% of the time it could come in handy. And I want it!

                                    Just a theory, but I would guess that then 99.99999999% of those times you would impliment and two months later say to yourself "ohhhhhh thats why that is not .Net compliant" ;) Just saying, it seems like it would be good up front (I thought the same when I realized I couldn't). But there is actually logical reasoning for it. Kind of like why things are base 0 index.

                                    Computers have been intelligent for a long time now. It just so happens that the program writers are about as effective as a room full of monkeys trying to crank out a copy of Hamlet.

                                          Which programming language you like the most and why? What feature(s) you love the most? Is there any other feature(s) that you wish to present in the language you are working on?
