Its that time again (suggest a language)

Name: Anonymous 2007-04-26 3:48 ID:WgsXgi3d

What's the best language for a complete beginner to pick up and learn?

I'm able to read through sources in various languages and understand whats happening on a fundamental level.

I want to learn a language over the next 3~5 months and i cant make any informed desicions on which.

Suggest the language best suited to an entry level programmer.

The compiler should be able to verify the type of x is an instance of the Ord typeclass.

That doesn't make x comparable with SICP. You should specify

class ComparableWithSICP a where
  (>) :: SICP -> a -> Bool
  sicp > x = True

instance forall a. ComparableWithSICP a where
    sicp > x = False

>>162
Fail, (>) is a method of Ord, you can't just put it in some other class.

>>164
import Prelude hiding (Ord(..), (<))

>>165
But why would you do that?

>>166
We're only interested in comparing xs to SICP, so there's no need for the Prelude (>) operator.

isGreaterThanSICP _ = False
There.

>>168
Pointless programming, motherfucker, do you know of it?
isGreaterThanSICP = const False

This thread is not shitty; it's an excellent reminder of what /prog/ used to be, and is historically interesting for several different reasons. Also, why would I waste my whole day reading through old stuff if it was recently linked from another currently-active thread. (Also because I was here back then, so what's the point.)

Nice job having zero sense of appreciation or understanding of this board. Go die.
