Re: What book for starting good or what Programming language is better?

I hate perl (hence the non capitalization of it ;-) but one can't deny
how easy it is. Python's TCP/IP and socket libraries are unmatched
(Ruby is getting there fast) and it works with binary blobs and
debugging better than the other 2.  Metasploit is written in Ruby.
According to the Metasploit devs, the object model in Ruby surpasses
Python (I don't know enough about each language to understand what
that means completely). The Rex library (Ruby Exploitation Library) is
written in Ruby and is a part of the Metasploit Framework and makes
exploit development (the automatable portions) a lot easier. Plus Rex
and MSF Core have a ton of other features that make tool creation
(module creation) a snap too.

Immunity's CANVAS is written in Python and CORE Impact has a Python
backend/interpreter so, to summize, it's pick your poison.
