Which programming language is better?

Comparing C to Python is like comparing Skiing to Snowboarding. Although they both programming languages, they were made for very different things. C is a more general purpose language, due to it being so low level. It also is very fast because of this as it compiles very well to assembly. It also leaves garbage collection and memory management to the user, leaving the guesswork out of the equation. Python is great for creating 'pretty damn' fast applications quickly, as its higher level means that each line, on average, does more. Developers don't have to worry too much about memory management and memory leaks (however they should always be kept in mind due to the cases where it IS a problem). They are both very good general-purpose languages. To me, comparing C to other programming languages and rating them is strange due to the fact that it is so low-level. In some cases, C is essential as it is the only way to get the job done properly.
