pfffft its just a language don't get all messed up about it

everyone has their fav or the one they are best at or their first love when they got their first atari and plugged its rf converter lovingly into the back of the television and it was a magical, beautiful, sexual thing...

but its not like you are trapped on an island with it or married to it or something

i wrote a CGI app in R, it literally ran a new R process for every request and is the most horrifying thing ever

it was only used very briefly for one specific thing and worked fine and will never be used again but i'm still tempted to rewrite it all so nobody finds out how it actually worked

yeah I don't care about that CoC argument

the CGI overhead was nothing compared to the time it takes R to start, load several libraries (somehow this is really slow?), read in the various files that maintained state ugghhh it was awful

"adding an extra (and unneeded) return statement or a pair of parentheses () will impact performance in a noticeable way" what the gently caress

the answer is clojure + incanter

use the best language (a lisp) on the best platform (the jvm) to do cool stats poo poo (via incanter, an R-esque package)

R is really good but it's clear to me it's a stats package first and a language second.

fastcgi is actually stupid simple as long as you've written your poo poo to sit and wait for input instead of start on input then exit

also as long as you can get a result quickly

so i guess this is the thread for this. got a fun text from my dad, who wrote visual basic for three years in the 90s:

quote:

If I wanted to write my own simple web browser, what would be the best language to learn?
didn't know where to being with that one
half an hour later while i'm still trying to wrap my brain around that, i get another

Ok looks like the answer is c++ according to what I found online...
