My Top/Best 3 Favorite Languages

It switches very frequently, but my top 3 list is

  1. Python
  2. JavaScript
  3. C#

Explanation

Python
I love python for a lot of reasons. For one, I've used it the longest, I know it the best, and I've made the most stuff with it. It's also not too complicated, and was pretty easy to learn.

JavaScript
I like JavaScript, like Python, for how many places you can use it. Web, Node.js, Robotics; there is a lot of places it's used. I really like it because of it's python-like simplicity combined with good looking syntax (especially curly braces).

C#
I like C# because whenever I'm writing programs in C# it's always for a Unity game. Very exiting. However, this language is by far the one on this list I know the least. I'm learning, though!

Best 3 languages

I think my best three languages are mostly the same as my favorite 3, but I would swap out C# for C.

  1. Python
  2. JavaScript
  3. C

pretty cool lineup, tbh my favorites change all the time too - you think it’s more about the projects you work on or just mood swings?

Python and JavaScript stay at the top for me too, just can't beat their flexibility. What's one project where you really felt the difference between your 'favorite' and 'best'?

Great read! Im not surprised about python ranking 1st. I've heard many great things about python and how versatile it is. I honestly cant wait to start fully learning it again.

Thanks. It might be a little hard for you, considering your used to C++. But it's just makes so much since it won't be hard for anyone who knows much about coding!
