Fastest practical language

Name: Anonymous 2010-07-04 12:22

I know this is subjective so there is no one answer but I would like to hear your opinions anyway.

Which language has the fastest performance for most tasks while still being practical to write in?

You're not at a point where you should care about performance. Start by understanding how C translates to assembly, then you can start checking out compilers, interpreters, run-time systems, etc.

Protip: Optimization doesn't matter as much as you think. C code with only the most basic optimizations can still vastly outperform optimized Python (eg.: TCC).
