What is the best suitable language to learn for a future physicist?

Answer 1

Definitely Python with numpy and scipy libraries.

Answer 2

A lot of People would suggest Python but I would suggest Groovy. It supports Operator Overloading whichs makes it easy for vectors for example. And especially the default implementation of Ints that dont have a memory limit so you can calculate with a very big precision

Answer 3

@Daniel, python has that too !

Answer 4

@Bapiste E. Prunier
Well but I just dont like pythons syntax. Also Groovy is faster
