BEst language for socket programming?

Ah, "which is the best" questions. So much wonder. So much idealism.

One of these is probably the best: C, C++, Eiffel, Java, Lisp, Modula-2, Perl, Python, Scheme, TCL, Visual Basic.

EDIT: Visual Basic isn't as cross-platform.

Yes

yeah, i know not at all on topic, but does anyone else agree that Lucas Arts should give up on the Star Wars series and move back to the point and click adventure games? the Monkey Island series is the best....

Oop! Eek! Eek! Chee!

I would like to know which is the best socket programming language

Since you are from an arabic speaking country, I''m going to assume you ment, "Which library is the best for networking"

Then the answer, IMHO, is:

BSD Sockets(they are implelented pretty much the same on every system)

HawkNL(sp?)

and any library built on BSD Sockets, there is about a billion

With Java creating Sockets and ServerSockets is as easy as creating just another object

Mac for productivity
Linux for development
Palm for mobility
Windows... for the Solitaire

Socket programming in C++ with BSD sockets is good, thats what they use in most modern games I believe.

I wont say its the most easy, but socket programming is nothing really mind boggling.
