The homeland of the inventors of both C++ and Python. I'm sure there's no favouritism in play at all...


Well not Python, that’s Dutch. Danes did have a hand in Ruby, PHP and a few others, but it doesn’t really show around here. The most listed language is JAVA.


The inventor of PHP is Danish, and Anders Hejlsberg is also Danish, so we had a hand in C# and TypeScript as well. However, this doesn't mean there is a nationally endorsed programming language.


Guido is Dutch, not Danish.
