The Programming Language have the following types:
- Assembly
Strengths: fastest, low overhead
Weaknesses: error-prone, slow development, difficult for novices, not portable
- C
Strengths: extremely fast, widely known numerous tools
Weaknesses: Not OO, no GC, prone to memory leaks
- C++
Strengths: OO, very fast, widely used numerous tools
Weaknesses: No GC, prone to memory leaks, compiler compliance to language standard can vary
- C#
Strengths: Very OO, RAD language, easy to use
Weaknesses: Must be just-in-time compiled when run, memory hog
- Java
Strengths: Very OO, easy to use, portable
Weaknesses: Can be slow (though JITers are now common), not suitable for console programming.
- Eiffel, Smalltalk Ada, etc
Fringe game languages, few game development tools
- Scripting language like Lua, Python etc
Often used for gameplay scripting, but not for the bulk of the game code itself.
