If the world had to switch to a single all encompassing programming language for every task, what should it be?
C
Java
Anything with a dependent type system.
>>53296331
Assembly
>>53296331
C++.
I already use it for every single programming task.

Jesus Christ.
Rust
Brainfuck.
>>53296331
Haskell
>>53296397
Only correct answer.
Good luck making an os in html
>>53296530
>html
The OP said programming languages
Javascript.
Machine code.
VHDL
C because it is the most widely supported and has a stable ABI
webdevs can go back to writing HTML and CSS and pajeets can fuck off with their java shit for all I care
>>53296684
>>53296700
Neither is a programming language
>>53296331
Javascript
Honestly? Ruby on Rails, I have been programming since 1997 and it's my favorite
>>53296397
>>53296530
Indeed. I wonder how far we would be right now in terms of performance if programming would require actual skill and optimization today.

If you want a good idea, look at games released at the start and end of any console generation back when they were done primarily in assembly ( up to ~the PS2)
>>53297593
Although I don't mainly use assembly, I did take a class and found it to be a very fun language. It did help me improve my c++ skill though because now I have an idea a about what's going on in the background
Either C or Prolog.
Lisp
HolyC
Like God intended

/thread
When rapture comes I can hold my head high knowing I used God's OS/Language.
Also if you haven't tongued yet today here is a reminder. Please verify that your numbers are truly random first.
C++, I guess. I'm probably biased in that I only really ever use R and C++, and I certainly wouldn't advocate R as a general purpose language.
Machine code
>>53297589
Except for hosting amiright?
>>53296397
LLVM assembly at that. Now you can code for any architecture.
Latex because everything would look beautiful.

>>53296344
This
HaXe
>>53296344
Yup, C is the only answer.
Logo, motherfuckers
Prolog.
>>53296331
But it's already like that. What do you think all non-C languages are written in?
>>53298273
I appreciate this post.
The world already did that. It is called 'C'.
>>53296331
python
>>53296331
Assuming you meant high level language since machine code and assembly at least are needed no matter what.
Lisp. Lisp IS every language due to glorious reader macros.
>>53296331
Lisp
M I P S

SUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUPER STAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAR
Early PHP
>>53296344
Getting A's and B's only to use C. The circle is complete.
C is the only correct answer.
Dumb millennials with their meme languages, please fuck off.
>BUT OO MAH C++ MAH PYTHON MEME LANGUAGE
OO is shit and everyone knows it's shit. It's only forced on us by shitfucks that sit in an office reading SICP and drawing flowcharts for Hello World.
I do think think it'll be assembly because we have different architecture like arm and x86. C on the other hand is written so that it is unified for all architectures.
Who is she?

This. Only CIA niggers don't use it
