Which Programming Language Are You?

I'm not sure that I like my results.

You are C#. No matter how hard you try, you can't convince people that you are unique.  You're composed of others' traits.
Which Programming Language are You?

So tell me, dear readers, which programming language are you?

php. What is php?

You are PHP. You enjoy the World Wide Web. You are constantly changing the way you do things, and this tends to confuse people who work with you.

Nooo!
'You are C. You do what you're told, even if you know the result will be bad.'
Not happy.

I did it and got C++. I didn't like that so I tried again and got Python. I'd rather be php or Ruby. At least I didn't get C or COBOL.

php. What is php?

I think the correct formulation is "What is ?php"

You are javascript. People often think you are somebody else. You tend to be annoying to most people, but it's not your fault. You just get used.

That's disgusting.

You are binary. You are not human and go to great lengths to prove it. You always know where you are, and how you got there, but no one else does, ever.

Now to go back and fiddle with my answers until I know how to get C++, which is my favorite language.

"You are Prolog. You enjoy looking for different ways to solve a problem. You take longer to solve them, but usually come up with more than one solution."

Well, well. A language I admire in the abstract, but that I despised every painful second I had to actually write anything in it. A hint: if you find yourself needing an operator like cut, you're doing something wrong with the language design.

I am Smalltalk. I actually have programmed in Smalltalk, but only for a language-survey class back in college. It was the basis for one of the first windowed GUIs.

You are Smalltalk. You like to treat everyone the same way, but this lack of individuality makes everyone feel like objects.

Hmmm. I would have expected FORTH or Smalltalk.

perl - People have a hard time understanding you, but you are always able to help them with almost all of their problems. Pretty spot on for a librarian!

Ruby. I guess now I'll have to learn Ruby to see if I like myself or not.
