Definitely Python.

Last year has been very good for Ruby.

Only thing better than "C" is assembly or hardware

I will say C
Because i think c is one of the most powerfull and usefull languages!!!

Come now...you wouldn't really want to program in straight machine code, would you?

Why not? You might need one of these, though.

Agreed. However, what I think this person meant was actually building hardware with the same function as software.

LOL I should get me one of those

That super coder 2000 is awesome!

So many people voted python...
I would say C

Assembly FTW!

If Vala is on that poll next year, I would most definitely vote for it.

I don't like assebly... it is not portable... but it is the fastest allright

Once i programmed a loader in assembly to hack a license verification for Rhino 3D, using SoftICE to monitor which flags were being used for license verification...

I definitely vote for C/C++/Java/Python... or ADA for some stuff..

I'd program a quick 'n dirty app in Python, or Java, a more complex project in C++, and an intensive CPU hogging app in C.

I'd use ADA to program an Airplane stability authority controller...

So... each tool to its use...

Sorry to be a bit off topic, but as far as ADA, I know the US government uses it to. I learned about it when I was a lot younger, and even though I might vote for this or that language, ADA is by far one of the best IMO.

"Ada" (the programming language) is a proper name: Lady Ada Lovelace.

"ADA" is an acronym. It's most common reference is to the American Dental Association
