Ross C, I don't think the issue is with types but arrays vs lists. Also, with Bmax, increasing/decreasing arrays sizes is easy with slices. I've never thought to check array vs list speed. There were quite a few posts and not much real results. Maybe it's laziness as BRL have supplied functions for lists but arrays, imo, are a bit more 'fiddly'.
Anyway, my answer to the topic title is that Bmax is the best programming language that I have never accomplished anything with.
In fact that's not strictly true. I've used it for knocking up a quick GUI app at work but, at home, I keep messing with it rather than *doing* anything.
Still, for me, it's just for fun so I don't really care that much.
