So, Java is just good for UI and I/O? that's hardly a praise.

- mhd 17y agoJava's not even good for that. But the Pet Store has been used in previous comparisons, e.g. when C#/.NET first arrived. But take any application that has to communicate with other systems and/or users, and terse algorithms and vector commands appear less significant. I'm not saying that once you're doing an application in this field it doesn't matter what language you use. Quite to the contrary, but quite likely we're looking at different language features here. Modularization, macros and other means to structure your code. I'd honestly like to see how the modern APL derivatives handle that.
