I'm pretty sick of all high-level languages actually. I even wrote my own functional programming language "Fexl", and I'm sick of it too. Here's a totally general purpose quicksort: # (sort keep compare xs) sorts the list xs using the three-way comparison # function. It keeps duplicates if the keep flag is true, otherwise it # discards them and returns only the unique entries. \sort = (@\sort\keep\compare\xs xs [] \x\xs \lo = (filter (\y compare y x T F F) xs) \hi = (filter (\y compare y x F keep T) xs) \sort = (sort keep compare) append (sort lo) [x; sort hi] ) I'm tired of all of it. The language I really like is plain old C. To handle arbitrary strings reliably, I can just use this code: https://github.com/chkoreff/Fexl/blob/master/src/str.h https://github.com/chkoreff/Fexl/blob/master/src/str.h https://github.com/chkoreff/Fexl/blob/master/src/str.c https://github.com/chkoreff/Fexl/blob/master/src/str.c To deal with dynamic allocation, detecting any memory leaks upon program exit, I use this: https://github.com/chkoreff/Fexl/blob/master/src/memory.h https://github.com/chkoreff/Fexl/blob/master/src/memory.h https://github.com/chkoreff/Fexl/blob/master/src/memory.c https://github.com/chkoreff/Fexl/blob/master/src/memory.c For high-speed buffering of data, one character at a time, I can use this: https://github.com/chkoreff/Fexl/blob/master/src/buf.h https://github.com/chkoreff/Fexl/blob/master/src/buf.h https://github.com/chkoreff/Fexl/blob/master/src/buf.c https://github.com/chkoreff/Fexl/blob/master/src/buf.c
