/prog/ - Language Tiers

Name: Anonymous 2012-07-21 15:35

/g/ often does this — being a faggot, I thought I’d ask /prog/.

Which languages would you put in the following tiers:

‌• God
‌• Top
‌• Hacker
‌• Hipster
‌• Shit

Thank you, /prog/!

I got a better idea, lets put languages into catagories first, then you can tier them, because its full retard to say that C is in a higher tier than bash when they do entirely different things. I'll start

compiled
C
C++
D
Go
Ada
Delphi/Object Pascal

static VM
Java
C#

dynamic VM
Python
Ruby
Perl
Javascript
PHP
Lua

functional
Haskell
ML/Ocaml/F#
CL/Scheme/Clojure
Erlang
Scala

math
Mathematic
Matlab
APL
Fortran

I love having to break this to you son, but /g/ is fucking shit.

Also there is the right tool for the right job.
Now get back there you shitty troll.

compiled static vm dynamic vm

YOU ARE CONFUSING THE LANGUAGE WITH ITS IMPLEMENTATION YOU FUCKING TARD NOW GO BACK TO G AND CONTINUE TO THINK THAT LANGUAGES WITH IMPLEMENTATIONS THAT USE VIRTUAL MACHINES CANNOT ALSO USE IMPLEMENTATIONS THAT COMPILE TO NATIVE CODE.

That's because he's a PHP programmer, he had to put it somewhere.

Nice thread you got here, /g/.

youre wrong, how a programming language is implemented makes a huge difference. if that were not true then everyone would be using a single unified programming language and just porting the backend for different implementations. But that does not happen, because implementation affects what the syntax is able to do. This is like all the idiots on /prog/ who start threads announcing DUUUR PYTHON COMPILES TO C CODE WE DONT NEED C ANYMORE HUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUR
this is also similar to the idiots who say "C++ is a great garbage collection language" lol

oh and btw, youre a fucking idiot, youre too stupid to even go to /g/, go back to /v/

that feel when you thought Go would be a decent C alternative, but then GC and no pointer arithmetic...why even call yourself a systems language?

The designers of the language were very surprised to find that very few C and C++ programmers started to use their new language and that most of the current user base are mainly Python and Ruby programmers.

Because EXPERT PROGRAMMERS don't want to lose the huge time investiment spent in learning C/C++.

Anyway C fits a different segment, which is NOT speed.
