bjbj1991 Posted May 23, 2006 Share Posted May 23, 2006 Where can I find a source on the advantages of difrent languages? With nearly every programing language I hear people arguing for and against using the same mesurements of performance. Examples Java - too slow and dieing, as fast as C++ and growing strong C++ - useless, useful Javascript(Livescript) and VB - noob language or something to the effect Python - slow, not sure why but this language gets LOTS of support Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adthegreat- Posted May 23, 2006 Share Posted May 23, 2006 In my opinion, there are always people arguing over which languages are best, there is a rarely a consensus agreed. It really depends on what you want to do, the examples you gave are quite varied. If you have a specific goal in mind, tell us and we might be able to give you advice. I would also sugggest (if you havent already) read the 'Programming, it flat out baffles me' thread on this board, BTTF_Man outlines some good points.

runesmithie Posted May 23, 2006 Share Posted May 23, 2006 Here are some links that have been handy for me http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison ... _languages http://www.jvoegele.com/software/langcomp.html http://merd.sourceforge.net/pixel/langu ... -language/ <-- comparison as related to scripting tasks In general interpreted languages are slower once executed, but you have no need to compile them like with VB I just posted something! ^_^ to the terrorist...er... kirbybeam.
