Eli5: What is the difference between various programming languages? Dont they all do the same thing?
In: 33
Think about programming languages like cars.
All of them have wheels, but some are better than others at a typical use. You would not use a time attack asphalt race car to drive to wallmart, nor would you use a typical economy car to drive on a lake . (Yes some people do that, they are mad, but it works provided you just put nitrous through a big V8 and floor it. Check ice land offroad racing … it started as a road climbing event. Then they realized they could drive ON water, so they just did)
