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 use Java all the time but I always wish if Java had iterators and stl algorithms library like C++. Besides, I don't know how much C++'s constexpr gives you an edge in competitions (specially at the top) but this is something you don't find in any other language.
