Let's rank programming languages by good vs evil and lawful vs chaotic! Here's my ranking:

Lawful evil: Java
Neutral evil: C++
Chaotic evil: Javascript

Lawful Neutral: ADA
True Neutral: Python
Chaotic Neutral: C

Lawful good: Haskell
Neutral good: Lisp
Chaotic good: Perl

Still reconsidering the Chaotic good and Neutral evil choices though.

i am pretty sure the american disabilities act is not a P.R.O.G.R.A.M.M.I.N.G. L.A.N.G.U.A.G.E.

>>55472782
Now I know why I like C so much...my life goal is to be like Perl or Haskell

Those evil choices are also alarmingly accurate (Java and C++ in particular)

It's primary goal is literally to make developers happy, and has one of the lowest bug densities of any language.

If that's not good, I don't know what is.

anything on the good side is pretty subjective, but the evil is on point

This thread is so fucking stupid. How the fuck do you rank programming languages on those completely unrelated axis?

Fuck off, OP.
>>
>>55474797
Subjectively!

There isn't much point, besides it's kinda fun to do.

To be fair, I may have been traumatized by rails at uni. I'll have to evaluate ruby again sometime. Still don't like the gems thing though, and the way colons are used...
>>
>>55474884
Oh, old Rails is a horrible place to start with it.

I think it's best to play around in a REPL like Pry to get a better idea about the language in general. It allows you to navigate your namespace like a filesystem. (So you can "cd" into variables, "ls" to see members, run functions like commands, and pull documentation)

Also, if you put "binding.pry" somewhere in your code after requiring pry, you can use it like a debugger, or to run any code from any context ever. You can basically put it at the end of an incomplete function to experiment and build a bridge as you are crossing it, Lisp-style.

Also, method chaining on collections is the shit.

that study was all kinds of flawed. You're making a fool of yourself by using that graph

>>55477881
Slightly flawed perhaps, but still reasonable and it shows an interesting correlation: https://labs.ig.com/static-typing-promise
