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 as <emph>languages</emph> (ignoring practical considerations, such as libraries, and how widely they are used), they are poor realisations of theoretical linguistic concepts.
