I think gcc has the option to output an asm file from c source ...

C is an implementation of Algol and Algol does not work that way.
If C generates assembly source code then it can be captured, modified and assembled later. That is not the case with the C compilers I am familiar with.
That doesn't mean that is the way the compiler works all the time. Creating assembly source then assembling are extra steps that are not necessary when compiling a program written in any high level language.
Duuude, java is cool, its vb thats evil :pQuote:

I'm learning Java and HATE it.:mad:
i personally like c++ best. i've gotten quite a bit of experience with both java and c++, but i just like c++ better because you seem to have so much more control than in java. java just has too many warnings and strict guidelines (which can be nice at times, but can also become super annoying).
Java has to be the most UNstructured language I've ever seen. (from my limited experience so far);)Quote:

It's so hard to get the concepts straight after doing C++, Pascal and VB.:p
I once programed my girlfriend to get me booze when I was upset. Does that count? I think that's like, Java or something... I mean sometime she would get me coffee from Starbucks. Actually, it was a Chai Latte. But yeah. Java.
I took a programming class last semester that had java, scheme, and haskell. Scheme is pretty neat language to play around with. But as far as my knowledge of the language, I think I'm much better at C/++. And right now I'm learning VHDL, more CoE/hardware oriented though.
So far I must say Java. But everything I've done is college homework stuff, we havn't done anything very practical so I couldn't tell you for sure which i'll like most. Java to me is the easiest to understand and program.
Concepts should be pretty much the same as those from C++...Quote:

*EDIT* Clarity
Oops...I actually only did C, not the ++ part. Sorry about the mix up.:D
i think VB and VB.net is better because its what makes money faster.
Well, considering that c++ and java are both object oriented languages, that just about sums it up :) Once you get the OOP paradigm in your head, I think that you won't be able to imagine going back. I know that I can't after working on a large project such as a game, in which OOP techniques make things sooo much easier.Quote:

I wish I could vote for two, because I love C++. Every day I see more and more how great it is and can be..
BUT ...
Java will always hold a special place in my heart. I've been using it for most of my "programming experience", so it's almost like speaking a second language now. :)
Granted it's not as fast or powerful as C/C++, but it's really portable and that I like. GUI's are nice and easy, Applets are cool, and it's really easy to work with too. You have your own personal garbage collector! No pointers / mem management to worry about! Yes, I know that takes away some of it's power, but it makes it easier to learn other things, OOP things. That's probably why the colleges around here start out teaching with Java ...
YEY Perl :)
also on my top list
C/C++
Assembly
On my bad list
PROLOG (usefull if doing AI other than that its one of those that make you go CRAZY!!!)
PS..
I'm surprised Lisp is on the list,didnt think that many ppl use it let alone enjoy it :)
once you get into AI (if you do anything like that) you will mainly be using lisp. atleast that is how it is here at my school.Quote:
