You left out Javascript and C, which are even more obvious low-hanging fruit, though not necessarily as mind-expanding.

- berntb 17y agoThe first time in my life I bought a book for looks, was when I saw how thin "JavaScript: The Good Parts" was. :-) Disclaimer: I quite like JavaScript.
- jrockway 17y agoJavascript is essentially a less-functional version of Python, Perl, and Ruby -- but with many annoying bugs. (Variable scoping, for one.) If you want to learn about prototype-based OO systems, fine, but there's a reason that only JavaScript (and Self) use prototype-based OO :P C should be learned so that you are not tempted to ever use it for anything important.
