No, you need to remember the instruction sets for every processor on the planet, along with their memory locations, etc., etc.

Assembly is much easier. Probably the easiest language there is.

Yes, it's an easy language as far as grammar goes.

Assembly lacks power of abstraction.

The answer is clearly Java.

The Turing language is an insult to the memory of Alan Turing.

Now Turingol, there's a manly language.

(Visual) basic. Actually nevermind, it doesn't even count in the first place.

Perl

If you have a grasp for writing, you can turn an idea into psuedo code. From psuedo code, writing perl is a matter of formatting and using the right words.

FORTRAN. It's the best language to use with either DirectX or OpenGL. It's also easy to learn and there's a ton of information/tutorials on using it to program games/DX/OGL.

You can't tell if it works or not until you have spent 15 minutes looking at it. Maybe it's a perfectly Perl valid ugly hack, or maybe it's just rubbish. You can't tell until you've read the last character.
