List is severely lacking.

No Java?  BASIC?  FORTRAN?  The OISC language technically falls under assembly, but its just plain cool and deserves some attention.

It's kind of hard to determine what goes under the category of high-level language and what doesn't.  Technically, stuff like python, PHP, Perl, are scripting languages.  There are other types of languages too(I think Ada is still considered declarative and not logic...I know that Prolog is the one example always used in classes), but lets get some Haskell up there!  Functional programming FTW!

I like Assembly, only because it allows me to fiddle with the BIOS data on my motherboard and what not. I just love that firmware programming. Hmmm.... imul me, baby.

Right now, the version of Firefox our linux boxes here at university has does not like the extra drop down boxes to add options, so I'll be able to add the rest later tonight. Sorry.

Where's Whuby?

Oh, and PHP, the watered down little markup language this forum is written in, which only a total idiot would run under IIS...

And D.  I'm very excited about D.

I agree, maybe a few more options would be nice... after all, we have such a diversity of tastes on this board.

C++ is pretty popular, although you may have intended for that to fall under "C".

And I personally want to see COBOL up there just so I can see it shunned. I hate the fact that I've wasted so much of my life on that fossil.

But my personal favorite is Euphoria... it's considered a "toy language" by many, and may not have enough users to warrant being on the list. But I can whip out powerful code for random needs pretty quickly with it, and the design is elegant. It's the kind of language I'd have like to have created myself.

EDIT - Doh! Surely someone still uses Pascal? Apple programmers, maybe?

D looks pretty interesting. Why are C, C++, C# and D all grouped together, though? They all share common ancestry, certainly, but that doesn't at all imply that fans of one will be fans of all four.
