I've tried. It's hard.

Fortunately, there are several successful languages that I find to be outstanding.

  • D (v2.x), a better C++ than C++
  • Python (v3.x), everything — including the kitchen sink — scripting language
  • F# (v4.1), basically OCaml for .NET, which puts functional programming as the front-and-center foremost idiom
  • Lua (v5.x), powerful, lightweight, embeddable scripting language
