​@@theskyspire Lol, I think that you have a bias towards Android if you make such ridiculous claims. Besides that if you look up the most popular programming languages, Java and Swift are always on those lists. Kotlin on the other hand isn't. So, Kotlin isn't as big as you claim it to be.

4:23 - With C and C++, you do not have to *rewrite* code for different platforms. As long as your code is cross-platform (not hard to achieve if you make this is a requirement from the beginning), then you need only *recompile* for each platform. I.e. C and C++ are write once, compile anywhere. Java is compile once, run anywhere (via the JVM).

[@DonutAgain]

I was bothered by his comment about C++ needs rewriting also. I could not think of a reason why I need to do that. But I am not proficient in C++, I am confused a bit by that. Thanks for confirming this. It's actually what I was thinking, except I wasn't sure. For that, I thank you. It has saved my time. If I didn't see you comment, I may have to google for the reason for a while.

[@thought2007]

It could happen that you write non-portable code in C++ (unintentionally relying on features of the OS or platform). In that case, you will have rewrite or rework the non-portable parts to get those to work on another platform. But if you are aware of this from the beginning, the cases where you have extra work to do will be very small or nonexistent, and you will end up with a more stable product anyway.

[@dreamihad]

Your right... but your not . Odds are you will need to eventually need to use some OS specific features, Java handles this for you, like handling IO stuff. You can have shared libs, but you WILL have to re-write tons of stuff. Plus C and C++ are just harder than Java and C#- these are just facts. Modern compilers are so good most applications can be programmed in a higher language just fine.

[@thought2007]

Yes, IO eventually uses OS-specific features, but these OS-specifics are already abstracted away for you via the standard library. In C++ you may also write your own cross-platform layer (so that you can use the same code for all systems). In Java this is also possible but you will probably have to use the JNI, which is basically just an interface to code compiled C/C++ code anyway. Yes, modern *compilers* are good (C++ compilers), so use them to take full advantage of your hardware.

[@code_told_fast6683]

I think JavaScript was originally designed as a web-based compliment to Java. Hence the functions of the same name like "CharAt" and "IndexOf". C is simple and excutes fast. JavaScript has quick development time. Java is somewhere in the middle with execution speed and development time. Begin Rant: Java... not a fan. Way too complex for the sucky performance. Also, I am not sure what the hell people think they are "encapsulating" when they wrap every damn variable into a getter and setter method. Maybe it's an adapter pattern because no one can commit to the implementation of how to grab a public variable?

[@ryanoshea2710]

The technical aspects of code have turned me off coding courses for years.

Good YT video as always, Stef. I watched it yesterday at the car dealership. I'm not a C++ know-it-all, or an anything know-it-all, but you mention that designing web pages with C/C++ would be a daunting task, and, from what I know of C/C++, I'd agree. But, from what little I know, that's what libraries are for. Although, even there I'd have to admit, that learning all the C/C++ libraries for tasks like GUI development, and I assume web page design, is an effort unto itself.

Here's something I haven't seen you discuss so far. I'd love to hear your opinion on functional programming languages such as Haskell and their respective place in the market

[@Adam-cn5ib]

fuck haskell and fuck IOHK for developing cardano on it

[@sara-hc7wb]

what do you mean by "haskell is not usable"? it's not as mainstream popular as the big languages, but it's run in production by both some of the hyper large software giants, as well by plenty of startups. I think it's weird to lump haskell and clojure/similar in the same group as "functional". they are very different languages. functional is a very vague term too. the strengths of haskell come from its really strong and expressive type system that gives you plenty of tools for static analysis and type driven delevopment, something that isn't even on the map in a dynamically typed language like clojure. not to say one is necessarily strictly better, but it makes it really strange to lump them in the same category, because they approach code in such radically different ways.

[@Maver1ck101]

To give an informed opinion, you must have experience in the area under consideration. Unless he has done significant functional programming (either professionally or on the side), his opinion wouldn't have much weight. Note that the languages he covered in this video are either procedural or object-oriented or support both (except SQL), which are the two most popular programming paradigms today and which he's most familiar with.

[@Maver1ck101]

@Slump64: What do you mean by "dead concepts"? Haskell's ideas are far from dead; on the contrary, they are alive and kicking. *LOL*

Thanks for the breakdown, that was actually pretty useful. I know a great deal about c# and I use it for game development. Recently I’ve been wanting to get into web development and web apps and have been wondering where to start on that. Kinda leaning toward JavaScript now.

[@thriftynick27]

C/C++ compile directly to assembly (CPU instruction set) whereas Java compiles to bytecode and runs on the JVM. Scripting languages are not compiled at all and are run through an interpreter. Great overview video.

[@autohmae]

Actually, it's better to say: higher performing scripting languages are compiled at runtime.

[@scottfranco1962]

Java is run through a JIT or Just in time compiler. It is rarely or never run through an interpreter. It would be true to say that most scripters run by interpretation, but there are levels. Bash is a script that is directly interpreted, Python compiles to intermediate form (.pyc files). Typically the higher level of abstractions the language deals with the less advantage there is to full machine code compilation. A language that deals with strings is not going to get as much advantage from compilation, because it spends most of its time in string handling routines.

[@autohmae]

Yes, that's what I meant with 'compiled at runtime', because the highest performing scripting languages like Javascript also use JIT. Java like Python also compiled to an intermediate form, that's the bytecode that was mentioned by the OP. To give you some idea of how fast a 'just a scripting language' like Javascript with JIT can be: C is usually still faster than Java in most cases. And when people create micro benchmarks to compare C to Javascript they usually make mistakes in finding the best way to optimize their C code. And in most of those cases Javascript is faster. So only if the C coder got all optimizations right, C will be faster. That is how fast Javascript is these days.

[@autohmae]

@@Traumatree JVM also uses JIT. You do know JIT is automatically generated directly running compiled assembly code right ? Most of the slowdown from JVM comes from memory management and it's size (lots of disk accesses, just look at a JVM startup). And in case of Javascript it's the memory management and dynamic typing. Anyway... what about Rust ? That looks pretty good, C-like speed, etc. and safe memory handling and even unsafe if you need it. More and more code is being written in Rust now.

[@autohmae]

@@Traumatree Something else that really slows down Javascript is parsing. Which is why WebAssembly has a binary format.

Kotlin is based on the JVM. It creates VERY similar bytecode to Java. So speed is nearly the same in most cases. Only thing I know of were Kotlin is faster than Java on the JVM is higher order functions like map or filter, because the guys at Jetbrains really optimized bytecode creation here. The other thing is that one is faster writing Kotlin than Java.

[@BradenBest]

"Scripting language" is a meaningless term. It just says that the given language is "good for scripting", which is as irrelevant to the language spec as whether the most popular implementation is compiled or interpreted. Implementation details and usage are separate from language definitions. JavaScript, as defined by the ECMAScript standard ES2015, is a full-fledged, prototype-based multi-paradigm (chiefly: imperative, structural, object oriented, functional) dynamic inferred nominal weak duck-typed managed programming language. HTML and CSS, on the other hand, are domain-specific single-paradigm (declarative) languages. What do these words mean: * prototype-based - JavaScript implements a rarely-seen form of object inheritance called a prototype chain. In the domain of OO, prototypal and classical are the two major players. * multi-paradigm - Supports multiple programming paradigms * imperative - Any turing-complete language is bound to support imperative. This is the usual statement-for-statement do-this-and-do-that kind of programming. * structural - The ability to reuse and structure code into data structures and subroutines (aka functions/methods) is characteristic of this paradigm. * object oriented - Program behavior is distributed amongst self-contained data structures that contain methods for working with their own data. You can see how there is a logical evolution from imperative -> structural -> object oriented. * functional - focused on pure functions as defined in mathematics, follows closely the ideas of lambda calculus. Functional programming tends to gravitate towards functions-as-data and list processing. E.g. a common idiom is [1,2,3,4,5].map(x => x * x); // [1, 4, 9, 16, 25] * declarative - focused on the end result rather than the technical details. "Say what you want" rather than "Say how to do it". Dispatch tables are an excellent example of applied declarative style, and I am personally a huge fan of declarative and functional. * dynamic/static - this refers to type checking. A type system is static if types are checked before run time, whereas it is dynamic if types are checked during run time. This and inferred/manifest are the major differences between languages like C and JavaScript. * inferred/manifest - types are _inferred_ from data or must be explicitly stated by the programmer (manifest). It's the difference between `int foo = 5;` and `let foo = 5;` * nominal/structural - most langs are nominal. Types are determined to be the same based on type name/signature (nominal) or by looking at the structure of the compared objects. In JavaScript, the only thing telling you that {a: 5} and {a: 5} are the same type is the type name "object". They cannot be compared for type compatibility based on structure. Technically, everything in Javascript (except null and undefined) is an object of some form. IIRC, Go has structural typing. Which means two different structures with the same content will compare equal in type. * weak/strong - a bit fuzzy with where lines are drawn, but this refers to what is tolerated by the type system. C has a weak type system because everything is technically a number, except for structs and unions which are more of a "syntax sugar" thing that is handled by the implementation. You can add an `int` to a `char *` and get an offset of a string. You can call malloc() without casting, as it is implicitly converted to the correct pointer type. C++, by contrast, has strong typing, which makes it painful to write C code because C's idioms are often based on the advantages of weak typing, which C++ disallows. C++ is commonly called a "superset" of C, which is false and the two languages are actually very incompatible. If A is a superset of B, then all valid B programs are also valid A programs. Since you are required to do things like casting malloc explicitly, this means that you can't compile a (valid) C program with a C++ compiler and be guaranteed a successful compilation. And vice versa. C++ is a misleading name. Don't fall for it. * duck typing - a subclass of weak typing. If it looks, acts and sounds like a duck, then it's a duck. This is in reference to the way JavaScript mangles types and overcomplicates operations when two different types are being operated on. "5" + 5.0, [] + {}, {} + [], [] + [], [] + 5, "5" == 5. These are operations you would expect to fail because none of them make any sense, but with duck typing, you get "55", "[object Object]", 0, "", "5", and true. Duck typing is the implicit conversion of one type to another type, and this kind of idiot-proofing it is the source of a great many bugs in JavaScript programs. * managed/unmanaged - Whether memory is managed automatically. C is unmanaged. JS, Python, Common Lisp, Java and C# are all managed languages, which means they have integrated garbage collection.

Java is not that slow, yes it's slower than C but not that considerably(very roughly 2-3 times slower). Also modern C++ is definitely not just a "low level language", it's a generic language where you can write both high level and low level code. Modern C++ code is actually not much more complex to handle than what Java is, unless you really-really want to do some C++ trickery. The memory management headaches of C++ are a thing of the past.

[@krzysztofszczepanski8597]

For warmed up modern JVM versions its more like 5-20% difference in normal conditions and in some cases Java is even faster than C ( I tested it by comparing around 10000 runs of simple programs in C and Java that calculate large Fibonacci numbers ) . And with G1 GC and JIT sometimes apps are even faster since C2 compiler can optimize them very well.

This is a utility kind of card game, for one person, so interaction with others won't be needed.

[@kazaakas]

Great little summary! Much better than I would've worded it, but nevertheless I feel inclined to add some comments: You're calling some languages fast and slow in different contexts, that may throw off many new people. Java is quite slow, compared to C... and JS is fast compared to Python. But calling Java slow and both JavaScript and PHP fast a few minutes later will surely throw people way off. Java is no longer many factors slower than C++ and JS as a server language is actually one of the slower choices while Java is one of the faster languages. Billions of dollars have been invested into optimizing the JVM due to it being an enterprise languages, and that really shows in Java 8. Furthermore PHP is really on the decline. It's one of those languages that is used everywhere because large platforms that work fine were once built on it, but today, the vast majority of people starting projects from the ground up prefer to use something else than PHP. Partially because quite a lot of modern web sites and web apps are written as single-page apps with a completely separate API server, the whole notion of injecting data into an HTML document on the server is losing traction and this is one of the few things that is more convenient in PHP than in other languages. Also... it's just really easy to mess up and write bugs in PHP compared to other languages. Not if you're accustomed to it of course, but I too believe there are better choices out there to write a server. Mostly GoLang and NodeJS are on the rise in this regard. I feel it's more important to base what you're going to learn on what will be relevant in about 3-5 years than what is used now in large legacy codebases. Source: JS lead dev, currently investigating what language we'll hire people for to rewrite our API server.

[@mycardbrokedown5699]

no language in this world will ever save you from idiotic coders! I have seen idiotic code written in J2EE and that framework is as standard as it gets... The sheer idea that a language will stop coders screwing up is ridiculous, the only thing that does that is good QA, good processes, CD/CI tools, versioning control and unit testing. You can pick a language with 2 instructions and coders will still be able to implement bugs in it! Also injecting data into html client side... coders rejected XSLT/XML/DTD, I mean that standard is supported completely even today by ALL browsers mobile or not! and yet NOBODY uses it even though those were created for this exact reason. These guys all think they're so f smart chasing "modern" languages and discarding all the hard work that has been already put into existing technologies. It is guys that think like that that invented canvas even though we had SVG(btw also supported natively across the board). You know that the browser can marry data to template for you! and you don't use it! You go out and invent your own! You know that there is vector graphics processing capacity inbuilt in browser and you go out and build your own. And saying PHP is dying? Are you serious? 90% of the internet is php! Yes mostly because of wordpress but still. Also as the guy in the video said, php 7+ is a whole new beast! And it is really good, it is fast reliable safe... and you go build your own and then cry at the corners when you can't find a developer for "new ruby" or whatever else language you come up with! How can you even say that bugs are more prevalent in php?? I mean you can't even fathom the amount of shat I had to shovel in javascript from developpers not understanging what the difference between class and object prototyping is and how it works... or in java from ones that don't understand how a classloader works... or not even knowing java has one or that you can use one... sheesh, at least with php you have clean cut logic, it is one of the most clean cut languages there are, there is almost no black magic happening anywhere, everything is expressed and the few magic features like auto casting are few and far between whereas javascript can be written to a degree of complexity only dear god can untangle it. Java is better in this regard but mostly because hardtyping and because we use very smart ide's that build our projects and bind everything neatly together for us... the one saving grace for javascript would be typescript, which basically brings the entire crazyness of javascript to a bearable level. I mean come on what's next will apple or google or facebook implement a new RTC and call it something flashy like bullhorn? and everybody and their mothers will jump on it because of who invented it?

[@GRBtutorials]

Have you seen node.js benchmarks? It’s actually pretty fast!

[@ruudhermans4243]

@@GRBtutorials That's because he is just claiming stuff. NodeJS is mainly written in C. Claiming it is slower than for example Java is meaningless it all depends on the type of operations you are trying to do and how NodeJS or the JRE is optimized for those tasks. I doubt that JS lead dev, which he calls himself, here has any meaning. Besides that, NodeJS was created at first because JS allows event driven programming better than other languages do and the single threaded event loop takes away a lot of hassle. But anyway.... it's a server. Your bottleneck is not your API but most likely the protocol you are using to connect to your API.

14:30 when I was doing my degree in Comp Sci, back in ye mists of time, the head nerd told us "pick the right tool for the right job". (We were taught Modula 2, first...sigh (I won't even....) but that advice is rock-solid.. One thing I've learned the hard way is : if your favourite tool is a hammer, every problem looks like a nail. As a coder, sometimes you need to take a step back, and consider if you need to use a screw-driver. I would also add to the argument, choose a language (if you don't know any) you enjoy using (to get a foot-hold), but be aware there are many different ways to square the circle.

Oh yes it is! And open source.

[@philipmrch8326]

I love C#, have about 4 years of experience with it. Yes .NET Core is multiplatform and the performance is faster than .NET Framework and Mono. The issue with .NET Core is that it is young, so it doesn't have all of the features that the whole .NET Framework has, but it's often fine. And yes, C# as a language is open-source, .NET Core is open-source, and the compiler (Roslyn) is as well.

[@r0kus]

Good overview, thank you. Since you were focused on web-related programming, you skipped some classic, general purpose, extremely efficient (size & run speed) languages. Two that could have been included in a video with a more general focus are assembly language and Forth.

@General relativity Agreed. All that memory management you will have to learn will make you a better programmer in the long run, but if you're simply trying to scrap up a website or an information based app, other languages will promote better productivity.

[@azulay7746]

@General relativity harder then assembler?

[@Nitsuga-lb5br]

​@General relativity i don't think it's worth to take all that time on learning C++ when you can learn Rust instead and don't have to deal with the billion issues that come with memory management while also having a language that's as low level, but also even higher level than C++, while being faster due to it letting you do stuff the most efficient way possible safely, with some methods that would be extremely hard to do in C or C++. Not to mention rust has a way newer and cleaner code base, with a much better compiler that catches a ton of bugs before you run into them at runtime, and with well thought out newer concepts like lifetimes and async, which C++ does have, but it's way less ergonomic to use.

For a language that is declining and becoming insignificant you sure seems to always mention Ruby all the time and I mean all the time when comparing languages.....

[@StefanMischook]

LOL! The Ruby guys always say, "... how come you trash Ruby?" But you are right, it is in decline and I think it will eventually become barely used. That said, there are some Ruby jobs out there, so I mention it. The future is better for JS, PHP, Python, Java, C# ... and a few others.

[@davidbasil2727]

You know what's declining? Its PHP and asp.net. Rails is still there and growing. And the only reason why people mention ruby is because of the rails framework. Its the best framework out there.

[@sheltmasterdime]

Nice overview, not beating up on any of them as some people like to do. In my corner of the world (corporate IT), the common languages are Javascript for the frontend, Java for the middle tier, and SQL + DB vendor's stored procedure language for the backend. There are also typically a large number of batch programs on the back end to get the data into the DBs that are used by web apps and reports throughout the company. IMHO, unless you are concentrating purely on the frontend space, the best second language to learn is SQL. Except for browser programs, you are guaranteed to run into it at some point, and your value is greatly increased if you are competent in it. Even better is to be able to use the more advanced features such as common table expressions (aka WITH clauses) and analytic functions. These allow you to do incredibly complex manipulations entirely in the backend DB engine (where it will run much faster) before sending the results to the upper tiers.

[@wooden_yt]

Nice overview ! I would be interested in a similar video about new emerging languages (because there is a lot of them and I am lazy to research). Why have they been created ? Are they good ? What are they used for ? ...just to be aware of what's going on in the world of programming languages !

Stefan Mischook you can't write "да, я был" in that context. The thing you've written is literally "I have been". If you meant "Yes, I was [mistaken]", you should write the verb again: "Да, я ошибся". Don't mean to teach you though, just a little correction from a native speaker :D
