- taneq 9y agoSo what's the F/A-18?
- rpeden 9y agoMaybe Java? It's everywhere, can fulfill just about any role you throw at it, but isn't really the world's absolute best tool for most of those roles.
- breeze_em_out 9y agoI almost said Javascript out of ubiquity, but it'd be a grave insult to the plane. Java is a good answer, maybe C#, maybe Python. The language needs to be one that gets a lot of work done, and is reliable. What's a language that's just always got your back in a situation? That's the F/A18.
