I agree with this, except that in my opinion C++ does not give more of an advantage than other languages, if Darkhack meant that. I think that every language has its merits.

I also heard some great stories of Python, I have yet to try it, but am lacking time. Java is great if you want to get the OOP right (in my opinion a lot better than C++).
