Programming Languages

Name: !3LrT5NRVks 2009-08-30 22:00

C or C++: For when performance is the #1 concern

Java: Best all round programming language for non-toy programs.  Verbosity prevents 'shortcuts' that are useful for toy programs.

Mathematica: When you need to crunch some numbers.

Anything else: Only acceptable for toy or web applications.
Haskell: Never acceptable.

NO EXCEPTIONS

I've never even heard of Mathematica.  Is it like instant EXE?

Downvoted for always being a shitty poster

I'm disappointed in you, /prog/.

The front page has hardly budged since this morning, and the only activity has been from troll threads like these.

Are you a bad enough dude to drive off Kenneth with lots of threads about Erlang?

Matlab or SAS I can see, but Mathematica for number crunching, that's just silly.

Why is it so slow? Are the kids going back to school already?

Perl: Does everything and always works because no matter what you type, it's VALID PERL CODE

Probably.... But it's Sunday anyways, so no school for anybody.

I'm guessing it's just because Sunday sucks massive balls.  We'll see tomorrow.

I used to think this too.

And then I saw J.

J was created by Kenneth Iverson!

C++ supports multiple-inheritance!

Name: Anonymous 2009-09-05 2:20

>>20
Common Lisp (Object System) or CLOS has true generic methods which allow multiple inheritance(multi-methods), and at the same time classes can inherit from multiple superclasses. The actual data structures (classes and instances of them) are separate objects from generic functions, thus this works very well in practice and makes many ``design patterns'' become unneeded/obsolete (things like the Visitor pattern which is simply needed to work around the limitation of single dispatch object systems is a common example). Such an implementation is much more generic than most other so-called ``OO'' languages as it does not tie methods with classes directly. Aside from multiple inheritance, one has many ways to do method combinations and mix-in's.
