Programming Languages
The choice of programming language for your Next Big Project can be difficult. Even worse, it can seem easy… when it is not. On the one hand, strictly speaking, you can write any program in any of Turing-complete languages. On the other hand, that doesn’t mean it will be easy. In fact, writing a program in a poorly suitable programming language could be extremely difficult.
