I think your breakdown of a language is a neat idea, the decomposing of implementations by there ‘scores’ in the three areas of correctness, portability, and speed. I think I’d like to replace speed with a performance score encompassing both speed and memory footprint though. I also agree that achieving high ‘scores’ in all three areas is a relative impossibility. For me, the best language is going to be the one that has a maximum in the performance area and is provably (at least to some reasonable measure) correct. I think portability between execution environments can be a loss for the types of things I enjoy programming. |
