[computer-go] The best programming language ??

["GL7: David Elsdon" <gl7@xxxxxx>]

Hi all

I'm still playing around with ideas with in my program - GL7. I find that 
Prolog suits me fine since it is so good for prototyping and experimenting 
with new representations. But it is horrendously slow - we're talking 
orders of magnitude when compared with C. Since I will soon want to 
experiment with significant amounts of lookahead I will need something a 
bit quick , but still expressive and easy to write correctly. Like Don I've 
come to the conclusion that Ocaml is a good choice and I have already 
started to write a go program in Ocaml. Writing bug free code in Ocaml is a 
lot easier than writing bug free code in C++ or Java IMO.

Cheers David
