The speed of dark is faster than the speed of light.  When you turn off 
a light switch, the room goes dark immediately - but when you turn it 
on, it can take some time for the light to turn on :-)

in general it is hard to be faster then c not being assembly, though 
there could be an option to ease 
some algorithmic optimisations 
but not in the dlight degrading performance way but just equal in performance than hand way (if such kind of support is possible)

anyway as i maybe noted as it shows that for optymistation the crucial thing is not to increase throughput for all code branches but just for the
heavy loop so the gpu centralised approach may be more future than the 
separate cores thus it could be maybe
be handy to have support for VRAM and
GPU internals just from the c source level - so this is maybe a way, add c-spirit fine control on gpu to the c ground, i will be working on this probably too though it is quite new thing)

It may or may not be faster than C, depending on the skills of the 
programmers involved, but it is most certainly not faster than c.

Case matters.

You are new to Usenet, aren't you?  You don't get to decide who posts
what, or who answers your questions and how they do it.  If a poster is
seriously rude and insulting (like /you/ have been in many posts), you
can complain to that poster's ISP.  Other than that, posts like your one
here just make people laugh at you and treat you like a spoiled teenager.

Richard is a respected long-term member of this group, with a reputation
for being generally helpful, friendly, knowledgeable, and occasionally
witty and sarcastic (he is British, after all).  You, on the other hand,
are building a reputation for being a surly, arrogant and asocial
teenager, who puts more effort into insulting people and alienating the
experts in this group than you do into learning about C and programming.
 This is a shame, because you clearly have some interesting ideas and
questions - but as long as you choose to fight everyone else, you will
not get on well here or anywhere else.

bla bla bla, you could blalbla yourself to death, but please the  insulting dick teacher with his  getta stay out of me, really
(i fing thuis guy as a very primitive one and want to drown in his aggresive shit anymore)

You could also stay out, i would be pleassed (you bore ma and waste my time)

I have a suggestion. If you don't like the way this newsgroup operates, go somewhere that suits you better or set up your own forum.

take care what it will be look like otherwise, You or Richard will produce sh*t i will then produce re-sh*t and it will just trash the forum

taking your dumb sh*t is not an 
option, trashing this forum with answers like "get away dork" is also weak option. better jus stay out

For general programming, C is considered the "gold standard" for speed. 
  There are not many situations where you cannot write C code that is as 
fast or faster than code in other languages - the exception being when 
you can use assembly for particular specialised cases.

However, just because you /can/ write code that is faster in C, does not 
mean that you can write good, clear, flexible and maintainable code in C 
that is faster than in other languages.  It has been mentioned that 
Fortran can be faster than C for some types of code - often you /could/ 
write just as fast code in C, but it may get uglier or require 
compiler-specific switches or extensions in order to achieve the 
performance.

When staying with good, clear code, then C++ can be faster for some 
sorts of code - especially if the algorithm can make use of C++ features 
such as virtual functions, as a C++ compiler will usually handle them 
faster than a C emulation of them.  And the use of templates can help 
make specialised functions that outperform general C functions designed 
to handle multiple types (such as for data structures or sorting 
algorithms).

There are also situations where JIT compiled languages can beat 
statically compiled languages, by creating specialised functions on the 
fly that match particular use-cases.  This leads systems like PyPy 
(Python combined with a JIT compiler) executing faster than C code.

Staying with Python, you can also find that well-written Python can be 
faster than well-written C, even when compiled - /if/ most of the work 
is done by the highly optimised code in the Python libraries and 
interpreter.  For example, Python contains some very high efficiency 
sorting and filtering algorithms - they will not beat similarly 
high-speed code in a C library, but /will/ beat most self-written 
sorting code or standard C qsort() implementations in many cases.  If 
development time is of no concern, C will beat Python - but if 
development time is a factor, Python code could be the most efficient.

(The same argument applies to many other languages, of course - and in 
the other direction when comparing C and assembly.)

One of the few languages that seems to outperform C in some tests in 
language shootouts, is ocaml.

As others said, Fortran makes it easier to optimize than C.  In C, you
often need to go to the extra effort to take advantage of restrict or
(slightly non-standard) __restrict pointers and choose a compiler which
optimizes on the basis of the typed aliasing rules. Link-time
optimizations (under at least 3 different names in various C compilers)
may overcome some of the limitations. If your ground rules are not to
take advantage of anything not supported by all available C compilers,
these features are excluded.
The question can easily become inappropriate.

There is a theoretical answer and a practical one.
The theoretical answer is that a number of those languages that you mention *COULD* compete with C for efficiency.

As a practical matter, (except in highly constrained embedded cases) we have to get the results out of the computer or report on their progress, so absolute efficiency may not be as important as other factors.

I have said that we will always need one language for "discovery" of solutions and another for implementation of solutions once known. In fact, the better that you make a discovery language, the worse it gets for implementation.

I have a hard time parsing your question, but C++ tends to be faster
than C.

Plenty of other languages are faster, in specialized cases.

How so? Speed should be same and C++ has additional bloat. Lot of
bloat...

Talk about *implementations* please. This implementation of
language X is faster than that implementation of language Y
in this benchmark, particular case.

By all means, keep telling yourself that.

Fortran for numerics has already been mentioned.  Surely this is
common knowledge, that Fortran allows the compiler author to do things
a C compiler author cannot easily do?  But yes of course a poor
implementation of Fortran will be beaten by a good C compiler.
