Fun fact: Python is the only programming language named after an animal!
… javascript ???
C shell
By the C shore
If someone hasn’t made a garbage collector for C and called it C Shore, they need to get on it asap
There actually is a fish Shell
Fucking Caml, hate this language 👺
That reminds me… Oh, Caml.
Ook!
llama?
If I’m not wrong python is named after Monty python TV show and not after a animal
I’m not sure, but I think that might have been part of the joke, seeing all the comments here.
Monty Python, being a comedy troupe, consists of humans, which are a type of animal ;)
…Similar to pythons, which happen to be animals as well.
Javalina 🐗

Ada is named after a human and humans are animals.
Pascal, too.
Haskell
Yes, indeed, I see javascripts in the wild every day.
Nah, it’s not a programming language.
It’s a tool for degenerates (said the kid who grew up rotting his brain with vbscript)
Am professional js dev, can confirm. Have maximum brain rot.

Eh, whatever. It puts food on the table…
I’m not judging, I know the pain
It’s not even that much of a pain. I’m mostly dealing with TypeScript, very rarely vanilla JavaScript, and it’s even enjoyable most of the time.
Sorry, I was must continuing the joke.
There’s also OCamel and Julia.
Julia is an animal?
Yes, under the right circumstances she can be.
Yea, Julia is the name of the squirrel that routinely exploits my bird feeder.
Yeah, there’s a bunch of humans called Julia.
And Ada
Ocaml stands for “Objective Categorical Abstract Machine Language”, so it’s pronounced like “Camel” but not named after it, unfortunately
What about Lolcat?
kthxbye
Python isn’t named after an animal it’s named after a comedy troupe, which is a group of animals
Until recently, thought it was also named after Pythagoras, with the snake being a double meaning.
fun fact: Pythagoras was named after the snake god Glycon.
(this is not true)
Python, Spam, IDLE.
Monte Python have a lot to answer for.
What about
D
Fun fact: Python is not named after an animal! It’s named after the comedy group Monty Python’s Flying Circus.
oh, well then that explains why Python is a joke.
While I disagree with you, this made me chuckle. A great joke. Wish you all the best.
Bro woke up and chose violence
More of a tragicomedy, really
*indirectly named after an animal…
Deep in the Serengeti, we find the lonesome JavaScript. With its tendrils deep in the ground, it begins consuming thousands of tiny life forms known as “node modules” to fuel its desires.
