If you had to choose - just based on the enjoyment of writing the code - what programming language would you choose?

Looking for some inspiration. I’ve heard good things about the Odin programming language.

#programming #programminglanguages #coding

@melesmeles Kotlin is great, but its ecosystem is still heavily proprietary. C is great for learning but it can be tedious and overwhelming in a large project.

I'm gonna have to go with D, I haven't spent enough time with it to know for sure, but it seems like it could be perfect for me.

@mrbones909 Thanks for sharing! Interesting. I haven’t considered D… Have you tried C++? If so, how do they compare according to you?

@melesmeles I plan on trying C++ soon, but I'm hesitant because it is very inconsistent and has too many features. The cognitive load is higher.

With D its alot more C-like, and very compatible with C. One of the cool things about it is it has an optional garbage collector, so you can easily write memory safe code but also get low level memory management when needed.

@mrbones909 That’s a good point! I think C++ was the first prog lang I tried back when I was a kid and to be honest, it put me off programming for quite some time … Given what you say, D sounds like a good option! Best of luck on your coding journey!
