Let me use an analogy--a favourite of mine. Let us say there is a two-wheeler mechanic. He puts up a board, "I am the best expert in using the monkey wrench. I fix any problem in a two-wheeler using nothing but my trusted monkey wrench". Would you use his services? Programming languages are tools. It is okay to have favourites. It is a given that each language is good in a set of areas. It is also agreed that you can do better with a language you know well, than with a language you dont know well, even for problems unsuited for your favourite language. But they are still tools. So develop an expertise in two wheelers not monkey wrenches. HTH and all the best -- Asokan Pichai *-------------------* We will find a way. Or, make one.
