Написал небольшое приложение для Emacs, которое позволяет ответить на subj, а так же многие подобные вопросы.
Как это работает: вы последовательно выбираете предпочтительный вариант из двух предложенных. elosort пересчитывает и сохраняет Elo-рейтинг для элементов списка и формирует таблицу с результатами. Результаты становятся более-менее устойчивыми после примерно N*N*2 или N*N*3 сравнений (каждый элемент с каждым 2 или 3 раза).
Как пользоваться: подготовьте список языков программирования (оптимальный размер списка 10-15) для сравнения в файлу в формате org-mode:
#+elosort_question: Какой язык программирования лучше?
* Common Lisp
* C++
* Python
* Scheme
* Pascal
(Рейтинг и результаты сравнений сохраняются в этот же файл.)
Загрузите elosort в Emacs. Например, скопируйте код elosort.el в *scratch* и выполните eval-buffer. Вызовите команду elosort-fight {M-x elosort-fight RET} и укажите путь к файлу из предыдущего пункта. Выбирайте предпочтительный вариант с помощью мышки или клавишами , и .. Посмотреть таблицу результатов - t. Вернуться к сравнениями из этой таблицы - f.
Приветствуются комментарии по улучшению кода и фич-реквесты!
