I am a computer science student. One of my pastimes is playing with programming languages. I strongly believe that every programming paradigm has its place and I strive to discover what they are. Although, I think that some implementations were botched: Java, C++, Python, Perl, and PHP are a few. Even though they are widely used, I think that, when analyzed objectively as languages (ignoring practical considerations, such as libraries, and how widely they are used), they are poor realisations of theoretical linguistic concepts.

My Favorite Languages
Language	Proficiency
AWK	novice
Bash	intermediate/advanced
C	novice/intermediate
Common Lisp	novice
Emacs Lisp	novice/intermediate
Forth	total noob
Haskell	beginner (can't figure out monads)
Ruby	intermediate/advanced
Scheme	novice
Smalltalk	intermediate
