Hi,
I've learned Python,the basic of C and Batch and now I want to learn a new language.
I don't know wich I should choose,because there are so many of them.So I decided to ask you...

I want to learn an language that is:

portable to Windows/Linux/Unix without much effort
needs hardly no main store
is secure (= the finished program shoudn't be easy to crack(e.g. no pufferoverflow possible)

Wich language would fulfils this conditions?

Some other?
With hardly no main store?

'cause Java isn't the securest language...

Its secure in terms of type-safety. You cant overflow it and alike(iirc). No languages are safe/hard-to-crack decompile-wise without coding it or packing/crypting it to be safe.

And the requirements you described(portable part) gives you pretty much Java or nothing. You can do Perl, but its not a compilable language. Sames goes with PHP (tho I have read that you can compile PHP, I know for a fact that facebook does(for performance)).

FreePascal

... is a compiler.
But Pascal itself,is it secure?Does it need hardly no/a lot of main store?

FreePascal is a compiler AND a syntax.
Delphi tho is nice...

Can you post a link to a tutorial for the FreePascal dialect.,because I only found links to the compiler...

You won't see much of a difference if you don't know either Delphi, FPC, Pascal, TurboPascal... all of them is actually the same language but uses their own compiler and has some changes between some reserved words and pointers here and there... like having a large app (corporate size) written for one mode, you won't be able to compile it with another mode - it will give shitloads of syntax errors.
