Which programming language you like the most and why?

OriginalGriff

Ah - a C++ programmer.

Real men don't use instructions. They are only the manufacturers opinion on how to put the thing together. Manfred R. Bihy: "Looks as if OP is learning resistant."

OriginalGriff

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.

As long as it can be used to program Angry Birds, I'm happy. :rolleyes:

Watched code never compiles.

BACON transcends languages and is a life-giving food of the Gods.

Multiple inheritance. :sigh:

And Nagy ducks and weaves and BAMO! This could be it folks. I don't think the 1 basers can take much more of this brutality. 0....1....2....3....4....5....6....7....8...9! TKO!!!!

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.

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.

C# is my favorite. Here's why: http://www.codeproject.com/Members/mla154#_comments[^]

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.

I want a 24-hour live video link to Salma Hayek, but I can't have it.

I'd be really happy if I just get an inheritance from Bill G or Steve J :rolleyes:

OCaml - because it does not have nulls.

SQL. Because it's the best way to access and manipulate the data I need to access and mess with, and I can use it via a number of other (general-purpose) programming languages (C#, VB.net, C, etc.) as appropriate.

LOLCode, because it makes me smile.

That's a new language I am working on. Like many language names, it's actually an acronym : Binary Abstraction of Code and Other Notations

var in C# is not like var in some other languages. The var in C# is strongly typed based on what the type is of the object assigning to it. Quite a bit different than being loosely typed.
