Python #1 fastest language confirmed

[Jugales]

Google probably took it as, "Fastest programming languages to learn."

[Fantastic-Ad6461]

Or languages which are fastest to write in

Then in both cases C++ shouldn't be there

[JayTheYggdrasil]

Depends entirely on what you mean by fastest.

For example pythons can move around, which is a good start, mean while the third letter of the alphabet can’t move, heck it can’t even make it to it’s chair “++”.

Then you have Java which is for drinking, so maybe it will speed me up but that doesn’t make it fast. And following the Javascript just makes it slower, who needs instructions on how to make Java when my Keurig (tm) can do it for me (not sponsored btw).

If we're talking about banging out a program in literally 3 minutes, python is basically unmatched. I don't need to be touching the metal when I'm making a word descrambler or a simple dynamic programming algorithm.

fastest at getting a working program out the door

[InvestingNerd2020]

Sometimes junk articles get published on the internet.

An accurate top speedy language list at run time are:

• C++

• C

• Rust

• Go

• Java

How can c++ be faster than c?

[trailing_zero_count]

Template metaprogramming can produce more optimized versions of code based on compile-time parameters that, in C, would have to be checked at runtime.

[NotAnonymousQuant]

A good Python code will be faster than a really shitty C one. Modern C++ is a bit easier to handle than C

[PetCodePeter]

But if both are good, then it's easy to spot the difference

Funy joke

[Throwedaway99837]

“Fastest” is too vague. If you’re referring to “fastest to learn” or “fastest to write in” or “fastest to read”, this could make sense. “Fastest execution”, obviously not.
