I think c++ is the best programming language. Pointer is oviously a problem for beginer but you can easily avoid them.

So why so many languages? Is there is technical reason, or is it just commercial war?

I love these features to be present in a modern language

  1. c like syntax with { bracket
  2. included assembly facility like D programming language. looking at D feature it seems it is superior than C# but digital marsh can only do so much competion with microsoft at this stage.
  3. built in flex/yacc facility. like i can select syntax i want but program will be converted according to my choice of converter. For example i like ruby syntax then i write the code in ruby and compiler automaticaly convert them to a intermediate language. .NET is doing that but i am talking in programer level by simply using a config file. like compiler.exe   program.cpp syntaxconfig.txt
  4. built in parsing like embeded html and php code. <cpp  my c++ code >  in same program <c# myc#code >.
  5. cross platform without recompilation

Do you like to add more criteria or have criticism?
