What's the favorite programming language for ICPC?

C++ beats the rest for most teams at ICPC2017

[ATeima-kkps]

The reason most people choose c++ is the fact that c++ keeps getting more features while having good performance.

I swear they asked me what my favorite programming language in general.

The only reason one would use Python in competitive programming is if they use sort of numbers

[thetrainoflife]

C++ is boss, and especially STL, damm it's absolutely beautiful ❤️

[aymenmt]

The only reason one would use Python in competitive programming is if they wanna lose and go home early .

[tdpencil]

C++ beats any other language in most things but not all.

[saniyamansuri]

Feeling happy bcouz I m learning c/c++ 😀

[reyaanuppal]

I see, Not any language is even close to C++ when it comes to competitive programming

[tangoolo]

Can we have a computer language whose compiler has the sophistication as that of Rust's and whose syntax is as simple as that of Go??

[takeoffyoung]

Cause the ICPC World Final supports cpp only?

[AA-dtod]

What's the name of last guy? And does he use rust for cp?

[hpgfluc]

C++ : for competitive programming
Python : data science
JavaScript : web
Java : enterprise/commercial real life usage

[devjeff]

What makes the C++ so popular for CP is because of its STL Library

[wthxrsh]

bro at the end casually said RUST in ICPC

[shivamkumar-qpjm]

I think people choose c++ especially for STL classes

[Jaypatel-dwvc]

didn't know rust was famous back in the day..

[RobertKing]

I've switched from Python/Go/C++ to Rust, it's great :)
