It’s done. Thirty days a small task in thirty different languages in about thirty minutes. But: it wasn’t really a challenge. The most problems I had with Elixir, a functional programming language with strong focus on immutability—but the rest was somehow simple. Only the thirty minutes limit sometimes generated some pressure…
On the other hand: there have also been some discoveries: most surprising probably Powershell, that (or better: the language constructs and the features) I would like to have as a shell on Unix or Unix like systems, too. Sounds probably a little bit heretical, but is true nevertheless. Rust furthermore is a language that I will invest more time in, as it seems to become a real system programming language.
And Elixir however, that I consider for the moment a real personal challenge.
And astonishing the fact, that I forgot a lot about languages that I have been using a lot more than twenty years ago: Perl and Tcl.
In the end, I am happy that I have done this thirty days, that I did not fail in any of the tasks… and that it is finished. It took me around 30 hours over the last month and sometimes, it has not been an easy task to motivate myself to spent an hour on it in the evening. But I did. And that is somehow the success.
