If a programming language was a boat…
Hi, Im wondering how i can create a boat in turing and if someone can post a example.
This makes no sense, since one doesn’t normally make water vehicles in Turing, the programming language. Though this got me thinking — if a programming language was a boat, what would it be?
Turing
Turing would definitely be a kayak(thank you for comments). It’s small. It’s human powered. It’s often used as a beginner “boat”. And it’s also very Canadian.

Java
Java is a cargo ship. It’s very bulky. It’s very enterprise~y. Though it can also carry a lot of weight. Will carry a project, but not very fun to drive.

Perl
Perl is a tugboat. Powerful enough to tugJava around, in 80 characters or less.

Ruby
Ruby is difficult to describe. It’s sleek, sexy, and very fun to drive. Here’s a picture. Very trendy.

PHP
PHP is a bamboo raft. A series of hacks held together by string. Still keeps afloat though.

C
C is a nuclear submarine. The instructions are probably in a foreign language, butall of the hardware itself is optimized for performance.

HTML
HTML isn’t really a programming language boat.

There’s a lot more to this, and it’s all up for discussion. How would your favourite programming language fare in open waters?
