Add your own opinion (if you'd like) to make the rankings even more relevant/accurate. Thoughts? http://www.slant.co/topics/5984/~productivity-enhancing-well-designed-and-concise-rather-than-popular-or-time-tested-programming-languag
Personally, I like Java. Its my first language that I learned when I took Programming 1. Its an easy and safe language to start off programming. Its not the most powerful language out there, but it sure is a joy to code in. C is of course one of the most powerful languages, even today, but being that it is so close to the hardware, its not a very safe language to code in.
