Some languages are closer to how you see a problem. Therefore they're going to be "easier" for you to program in.

- jamesbritt 16y ago"Some languages are closer to how you see a problem." And how you see a problem is strongly influenced by prior programming language experience. You often need to determine if a language will become easier for you once your mind groks how it represents problems, and if, in the long run, the effort to reach this comprehension is worth it. The tricky thing is determining if a language will become easier once you reach that Ah Ha! moment, or if it is intrinsically hard (for whatever reason; typically poor design).
- RACNicole 16y agoI agree with Tangurena 100% and I really appreciate seeing languages that correspond with the way I was taught to think in school. That is, logically! Personally, I'm partial to the basic languages because they appeal to my simple cause-and-effect way of solving problems :-) But some of the languages I've seen just have me shaking my head. Hardly anything about them are logical.
