https://dl.acm.org/citation.cfm?id=2635922 Just ONE study, so don't take too much heed. That said, apparently: * Strongly type, statically compiled, functional, and managed memory is least buggy * perl is REVERSELY correlated with bugs. Interestingly, Python is positively correlated with bug. There goes the theory about how Python code looks like running pseudo-code... Snake (python's, to be more precise) oil? * Interestingly, unmanaged memory languages (C/C++) has high association with bugs across the board, rather than just memory bugs. * Erlang and Go are more prone to concurrency bugs than Javascript ¯\_(ツ)_/¯. Lesson: if you ain't gonna do something well, just ban it. All in all, interesting paper. |
