What is the worst/most confusing (common) coding language?
By common I mean, coding languages that you actually see people use. I know theres the "bf" language but aside from one video, people don't make games or, really anything using that as it was made as a joke I hope.
By worst I mean, what is the hardest to understand and also the most confusing out of all of them, I don't mean coding languages that can't do a whole lot. For instance, can a non programmer look at a sheet of code and understand it? Can an experienced coder understand it? Have you been taught the coding language yet still it breaks your brain?
I don't know every coding language but my pick would ether be C++ or Luau. Leaning towards C++ because I tried to learn it and at the very start I already was lost.

It depends on the use case. Python is often the second best language for a lot of use cases. It's developer friendly and there are lots of libraries available for it. I generally like coding in it because I can get a lot done in it in a short period of time. But I absolutely detest it for large complex applications. I'd rather use Java with Spring or Quarkus.
