What programming language should I use to program a robot?

Question

What would I use to do something like "motor6-30 degrees left". A sort of object that I could put some sort of operation system into and can use multiple motors and/or sensors simultaneously.

Answer 1

Would really help if you disclosed what kind of robot, as there might be an embedded system of some kind.

In general, C++ is a good choice or Python, depending on the chip technology you plan to be using (Arduino? RPi? other?)
