Experience in Programming Languages

During my life I have used the following programming languages.

• At least 10000 lines of code
  1. Pascal
  2. C
  3. C++
  4. Python
• At least 1000 lines of code
  1. Perl
  2. Basic (two flavors)
  3. csh
  4. sh
  5. bat
  6. Macro assembler (PDP-11)
• At least 100 lines of code
  1. Algol-60
  2. Fortran (IV, 77, 90)
  3. Ratfor
  4. Forth
  5. Analyst
  6. LB instr
  7. Lisp
  8. Awk
• Some experience (e.g. fixed some simple bugs, or written a program to pass a course)
  1. Java
  2. Visual Basic
  3. Ruby
  4. Prolog
  5. PHP
  6. Snobol-4
  7. Algol-68
  8. Tcl/Tk
  9. Assembler x86.

Currently I like Python best of all. It allows to write computational programs which are faster than written in C++, much shorter, and easier to read, understand and maintain.
