Oct 27, 2010 at 20:21 comment added kasterma I would expect that a certain "win" is only past a certain complexity and experience level of the programmer. Measuring with just beginners mostly misses the point. Really using a language well requires language specific experience.
Oct 27, 2010 at 18:34 comment added Frank Shearar Sometimes though, the story goes, a language's "win" only happens past a certain size/complexity. For problems smaller/simpler than that, that language's amazingness isn't evident. So it's said.
Oct 27, 2010 at 15:24 comment added DistantEcho Experience is indeed a problem, so I would work with a beginner, or even better, someone knowledgable in an entirely different programming language. As for project size, I guess a very small project would be enough to get results, even if they aren't perfect.
