Favorite Programming Language
I just felt like getting to know everyone`s likes of coding. What is your favorite programming language and why?
Mine is Python,since it is my first anyway :D.It is very fun.Also,it is very easy to learn.I learned enough to start making simple programs in about two days.
So if you have the time,please reply with your answer.

There are some people who are a bit bitter at getting banned, and like to do little things to annoy us. True enough, but I reckon the shoutbox to need more restriction than a mere poll since new or a tad inactive members should get to vote on things like their favourite programming language as well. They won't exactly be spamming us and the appeal of spamming a poll here isn't exactly as high as annoying people in the shoutbox. Not to mention that to fuck with the poll they'd have to really go out of their way as it's only one vote per account. My suggestion is to, if not remove it, add a functionality for making restricted or unrestricted polls depending on its creator's judgment.

I can very well believe that there are very bitter banned users and that some of you get subjected to password resets or I rather presume password reset attempts. Still, someone who would honestly take so much time out of his day to create new accounts over and over again merely to cast one vote in a poll is very unlikely because, quite frankly, they could do a whole lot more damage/annoy us more in other ways. For instance there are the forums to spam, comments, code bank, etc. All of them are much better targets than casting one single vote in a poll, not to mention that just the spamming of multiple accounts would be worse than the voting itself, which should have no more effect on the site than for us to see a slightly larger number somewhere. And to be honest, I'm inclined to say fair play to anyone who feels that passionately about a programming language or whatever is on the poll to waste a bunch of time creating an account, logging in, casting a vote and then repeating. I don't think that newer/a tad inactive users should suffer because of such a thing in polls of the type we've got now that are more for a general interesting statistic and a feature exactly to entertain the users here, all of them. As previously mentioned I proposed having a functionality allowing for both restricted and unrestricted polls in the case it would be necessary to make them restricted. That should suffice.
It all depends on what type of application you are planning to write.
For simpler things, I prefer perl, as it is quick to write and it runs on every operating system that has an interpreter.
For more in depth programs, I use C++, as it is a lower level language and allows for more control.
Id like to learn ASM, then have control over hardware through more direct means.
Programming is a preference, some people like java, some like C++, some like perl, some like python. They essentially have the same capabilities, just some can be taken further than others.
