Return from whence you came, please.

so it's a "noob" language if it uses the word "then" in its syntax? Is that a rule that you're implying?

>Full on autismal
C, Lisp, Python, D, Prolog, Erlang

fixed that for you >>1-san

Forth, Haskell, Ada, ML, Pascal and FORTRAN use then, but they're not listed in the ``noob language'' list.
PHP, Java and Tcl don't but they're listed.

- Lisp: Not optimal for everything.  Respectable, but not end-all-be-all.  => Respectable Languages.

- C#: Useless outside of .NET.  Suboptimal for lower-level programming.

- Forth: why does this language even exist => "What? Oh I forgot about those, no one cares" languages

- JavaScript: Respectable syntax and functions but the limitations stemming from where it is used (the browser, where it is often a nuisance) has reduced it to a joke. => Laughably useless in the real world

- Ruby: People have been dickriding on this language for years and I still don't get  what's so special about it.

- Visual Basic: why does this language even exist

- FORTRAN: Good at what it does.  Respectable, but appropriately categorized.

- C++: Performance of C with OOP.  => Respectable languages.

- Perl: Abominable syntax. => "What? Oh I forgot about those, no one cares" languages / Full retard

- COBOL: Easily the biggest abomination of a language I've ever had the misfortune of screwing around with. => Full retard

- C: Useful at the system level. => Respectable languages

This thread is JEWS quality.

Oh shit bro, some EXPERT QUOTING in this thread..

this post would make sense if you could roll computer programming languages into joints and smoke them.

>>9
Then I could smoke two joints before I smoke two joints...

COBOL is used in almost all old bank systems. Deal with it.

go back to the the image boards, please!

First /g/ copied our shit posts and made them `copypastas', now they're posting their own shit post `copypastas' on /prague/?
I don't even understand what this is supposed to accomplish. . .

Forth: why does this language even exist
Forth used to be a combined OS, Shell and Runtime stack for controlling telescopes, so something like a significantly less shitty Home Computer BASIC.
