Hi,

I'm still fairly new to the platform, and I'm currently developping my backtests using C#. I've had a few attempts at Python but I haven't decided which languange I want to "settle in" with. To help me and other curious users out, I thought I would ask everyone. Which language are you using for QuantConnect, and why do you prefer it? What do you feel the advantages/disadvantages of one language over the other is?

To answer my own question, I like lots of structure and feel comfortable with C# with it's declarations and classes. I like LINQ for Universe Selection. I'm not super familiar with Python and I chose to go with C# to learn the platform. However, I wonder if I'm missing out by not using Python's libraries like numpy or pandas.
