Hey all.
I am a bit curious, but if applicable, what programming languages do you guys know? What are you the best at? And what do you use the most?
This thread is primarily going to be a general discussion thread about programming languages. Find something cool about a specific langauge? Post it! Want to find the best language for what you are doing? Ask here..!
As long as it relates, you can post anything... Obviously stay within the rules of the forum.
I''ll begin by saying that I am currently a software developer who primarily uses "C" for cross-platform programming. (Cross-compiled using MingW32 for Windows, OSX is done natively with GCC)
C is where most of my expertise lies, and I like it's simple nature, but I am moving towards learning LISP due to it's meta and dynamic nature... (For example, it is a functional language by default, but has a library that changes it's paradigm to Object Oriented) I have a Common LISP implementation set up with Emacs (Called SLIME) and I am working my way through this fantastic tutorial/book.
I know plenty of other languages, but I am not as skilled at them as I am at C. The best work I have really done in anything else is that I made a networked version of Battleship using a client/server multi-threaded model in Java.
What about you all? I'm interested in seeing what you use and why.
