What programming language are you?

[jeron1]

Java!?! :rolleyes: Because I drink it, doesn't mean I have ever written a line of it. Frankly, the list of possible answers were lacking.

I'm Perl, maybe that's why nobody understands me.

I'm C++ too :-)

Perl, if there's a language that I detest it's Perl! X| The description seems more fitting:

Me, too! I can honestly say that I've never written an app in VB. Perhaps that's what I've been doing wrong all these decades!

Visual Basic, which is actually my preferred language for it's syntactic clarity.

Half the questions have no answer for me. So there is no way to tell what I really am. My random selections got me to Visual Basic though.

I ended up with python (the language I ended up doing the most in before I retired). My result (after a few "WTE - I don't know these people - no answer I understand") was

You are educated and enjoy research, especially in science. You also love a good book when you have time to read. You pay attention to the details and you don't accept mistakes.

which is scarily close to the truth.

Java - "You know the solution to everyone's problem but your own". Maybe there is some truth to that. Noone reports C#. My guess is that C# doesn't appear in the list of answers; Java is the closest you will get. I sure would like to see the logic used to determine the result. It would probably reveal a lot about the personal preferences of the developer of the "test". It is of course meant as a joke, but revealing the developers prejudices would give it some "serious" value, telling how other people make their judgements. As others have remarked: For half of the questions, my real reply is like "None of the above".

[Lost User]

Ditto. They seriously picked the language I detest most :D Also, what PC brand I use? I think most of us don't have a brand on their machine and opt for more power.

I got Python then took it again with a couple of changes and got Perl. Both descriptions seemed fitting. Favourite colour is one thing, but does anyone actually have a favourite punctuation character!!!

[jmaida]

I am C guy. But the survey said I was Java (which I have never used). I guess C sort of looks like Java. Stupid survey.

For you and all of the other folks complaining about Visual Basic it is the very best language! You all must be very skilled. :laugh:

[Edward Aymami]

I am right there with you.

Result: Perl Your best days may be behind you, but you you've still got it. Once you make a friend they are friends for life. You are unpredictable, but those who know you best are used to it. (language I do not even touched, ever) A true garbage this one... The difference between Perl and C++ is choosing + over . on the 'What is your favorite non-alphanumeric character?' question... (which is one of many totally stupid questions)

python, better than VB but not by much.
