Hardest Programming Language?

WhereIsMyMoney · May 11, 2016

The hardest thing I ever tried was Haskell. I have used it for one simple project and all the time it was like "wtf, why is this working" or "wtf, why isn't this working". Someday I will learn to program in it. Someday.

Let's not talk about stupid languages such as Malbolge and others which no one use today.

VB.NET - C# - C++ - JavaScript - Python - Binary - Java - C

I managed to test them all, so I would say:

1. Binary
2. C++
3. C
4. Java
5. Python
6. C Sharp
7. Visual Basic dot Net

Just from what I tested, not what I heard or read.

Wow .. C# is easier than Python ?

I use python and I really believe its the easiest language in the world. It's even easier than English Language.

For OP : I think C/C++ are the hardest

Personally I think they are the same level. Python is shorter, but I'm sure is a little harder based on my math/speed tests. But I'm sure both are amazing and worth learning.

Assuming you mean a serious language and not brainfuck, my opinion is probably any functional language. Although anyone with a math background can easily understand the point of pure functional language, there are some abstractions that are quite hard to grasp. Monads, for example being one.

Writing memory-safe code on unsafe languages can be hard sometimes too.

So you wanna know what's the hardest so you don't accidentally try learn it and waste your time?

Don't wish it was easier, wish you were better. Don't wish for less problems, wish for more skills - Jim Rohn

After you are done with OO move to functional.
- Haskell
- Erlang
- Clojure
- Ocaml
- ...

Once I had to work with machine codes for a stupid reason. I mean 1's and 0's. I had an assembly opcode chart on my hand and programmed an embedded system by just placing all the 1's and 0's manually to the ram.

What about old school

1. Cobol
2. RPG

Python is like BASIC compared to those.
