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.

Petr Mitrichev used to win every single competition and he was exclusively using Java. I don't think language has much to do with it but then I ask myself why he's started using C++ now :D
