What Is The Best Programming Language?

You don't have to! You can use glade, Qt builder, etc.

 

Ever heard of GTk, QT ?

VB is a RAD tool that is used to generate the C# code on backend ,Same way every programming language has it's own RAD platform.

.NET is a framework which combines every thing from a language , RAD tool , GUi interface etc.

Where else if you are a professional C++ coder you just use different tools.
GUI:- GTk , Xwindows etc
RAD:- GLADE , Netbeans
Language C++ , Java

You can have umpteen number of options in which you can choose.

If you are a novice , Want a quick solution. Go and code in Php, It's most inconsistent but the best out-of-box programming language out there.

If you are really a smart coder , Go and learn python , You will be amazed with it's robustness and clean code.

Disclaimer :- Enough said, I tried to be as simplistic as possible in my above
rant , Hope it helped you guys a bit

 

If you're a really smart coder, go learn Haskell, and you will no longer feel really smart .

Enough said I think.

 

I like ruby. It's readable like plain english, assuming someone scripts it that way

 

IN my opinion JAVA and JSP ie Java is the Best Language ... i hate VB and .nets lol

 

Ruby is slow, though . But block passing is awesome.

I dislike java, it's overly verbose, broken, and you get all the bloat of .NET without any of the benefits. :/
