There have been threads like which antivirus you use or which operating system you use etc.
But here is a thread which programming language you use the most or which is your favourite one??. Tell with reason.

Where's PHP in the options? ;)
And I selected every option apart from VB, Objective-C, and Delphi (more so because I've no idea in these). Every language is preferable in its own right ;)

That said my favourite language is Python.

Well, I love C, as I that's the programming language that I learned first, and my logic was developed using C only, but then I don't know C that much, just about medium level which I learned in college and got polished when I learned Data Structure, and more polished when I used it under Linux.

My most preferred language is PHP, don't know why, but I find it really easier to grasp, and there are many PHP Developers out there and lots of forums. It got more polished when I started doing Freelancing on web development on my free time and worked on few projects.

Then I learned Python, which I liked most.

But still PHP is my most preferred language :)

And if you want to know most hated language within the list, I'd vote for Java :p (Sorry, Java Lovers)

Earlier I have learned Visual Basic and some amount of Visual Basic.NET, then I started with Python.
This language really beautiful, I liked it very much. Whenever, I want to develop any application for Linux I use Python and VB/VB.NET for Windows.
Now I am learning C#. This one I also found good and better than C and C++.

^^ you sound a research guy. r u one ??

studied haskell and matlab for my image processing project. interesting languages but picked up C# instead.

haskell makes implementation of many algos very very easy
