It's kind of like the difference between the truth and a lie, you can believe the truth, or just believe the lie.

Either way your only lying to yourself.

So if I want to believe a VW Golf is a plane, that's OK is it? Does that mean that if I drive really fast and and shout "v1! .... v2! .... ROTATE!" and yank on the steering wheel a bit, the thing will actually fly? Do tell, Mr MacDad!

    No...im not trying to be a mister "know it all"

    Im just saying that you can say Batch is a programming language or not by your opinion.

    So In my opinion i say that Batch is a language. JUST in my opinion.

    The trouble is, computer science is a subject taught in schools and colleges and if they all say that batch and script languages are programming languages and somebody says it's their right to have the opposite opinion, they end up looking like a "prat" as we say in the UK.

      My point is that it's perfectly all right to say that Windows batch language is an ugly language, or a crude language, or a limited language - these are matters of opinion. To say that it is not a programming language is to make an error of fact.

      This isn't really a matter of opinion. It either is a programming language or it isn't.
