Comment on Why is C++ still a very popular language in quantitative finance?Comments−supahfly_remix15yI'm familiar only with C++. Does Java or C# have libraries that are similar in concept to the C++ Standard Template Library (STL)? Error messages can be inscrutable, but it is very powerful.−dkersten15yYes. The Java and C# standard libraries are actually much larger and broader than the C++ standard library + STL (and possibly including Boost).(fyi, I mostly program in C and C++ these days, but used a lot of Java when I worked in telecommunications)
