(Most/Least) Favorite Programming Language

edggy
Hey, I'm just curious what programming languages people prefer and why. Here's some languages I've worked with: Python 2.7: This is my go-to language for smaller project. Easy to make something quickly that works. Python 3: I prefer 2.7 since I don't see enough added reason for 3 as a whole new version... C: This is good when you need to get to low level stuff or really need to optimize for speed and efficiency. C++: An object oriented version of C, I would prefer to use C since if I want objects I would just use Python Java: I'm not sure where Java lies anymore. It's good for cross platform I guess... Lua: I've been learning Lua to program Turtles in ComputerCraft, a mod of Minecraft Javascript: I don't want to deal with it if I don't have to. I hope WebAssembly becomes popular soon. Please post your comments about your opinions

I don't know if I would consider C++ object orientated but rather multi-paradigm since you can just as easily use it without making an object once. I would even dare to say that it's more of a procedural language than object orientated. C# on the other hand is strictly object orientated and overall IN MY OPINION a more comfortable language to code it. Not only do objects make it easier, but stuff like garbage collectors etc. TLDR; C# is my fav language

I do 90% of my work in C/C++/C# .. Hard to pick a fav when they're just tools for specific jobs but i mean... I can easily list languages i hate though (*cough* python) x3

@reisenpai66 Tech schools are really pushing Python. Why do you hate it? They are selling it like its easier to use than its predecessors.

@verucassault its slow, awful to write in, forces a specific way of writing code, up until a month or so ago didnt even have shit like switch case which forces bad habits. I think it still doesnt have proper enums either.. Theres no other syntax like it so if you learn it first, good luck learning another lang. Most people import libs for half their program so its literally another stackoverflow copy/paste language. If i wanted a quick and shitty scripting lang for prototypes id use powershell before i would use python, but most shit i can whip up fast in a c-like lang.. or C itself.. Its taught in schools because its supposed to be noob friendly but idk.. i think its less intuitive on certain things. Its also taught because it forces code style by spaces and tabs being syntax.
