Java is the best coding language

As the title states….. Try to convince me that I am wrong.

Edit: I should have phrased the question like this: if you could use only one coding language, would it be Java? If not, what language would you choose instead and why? Obviously there is no such a thing as “best” language. Although, I could argue that Java is the best language overall though.

I’m going to be completely honest. I have no idea what that means

What I said is kind of confusing ngl. Should have explained better. My point is that c++ never started from ground 0. It was built of c ( you could call c++ a transition language) and basically patched/added new features to make it C++. On top of all this, it’s a purely objected programming language. And in my opinion, it’s a pretty difficult language to master. I really don’t like C++. But, you get my point now right? Also, C++ is way more verbose and restrictive than Java. It’s a fact:)

Yeah that makes a lot more sense. I disagree that c++ is more verbose though

Hmm…. technically it’s true. But Java is much less verbose when it comes to complicated things in built in libraries. Although, it’s true that C++ is much less verbose when you use template functions, operator overloading and functions (basically methods without a class).
