For huge data sets CERN's ROOT is used by high energy physicists though Python with numpy and pandas is getting nearly as good and certainly much easier to use. R is also excellent for statistical analysis. In my field (nuclear physics) Fortran is still used, but more due to the large amount of very useful legacy codes that are available. C++ / Python / Java is far more common for new projects.

FORTRAN is a good language if you're looking to handle large amounts of data, and it's written specifically for that purpose. This language isn't available on SoloLearn, but here are a couple of sources that you can use to learn it if you're interested; http://www.fortrantutorial.com/ http://www.tutorialspoint.com/fortran/
