What programming language do arduino use?

I don't really know.... The programming language I do see in Arduino IDE is more like... C but some said it's C++

Off course it does...... How will you be writing a program for a hardware without knowing the language

oh you program them using processing minus visual part the loop variable etc println etc etc etc by default when you download the arduino ide that's the lang you use not serial communicating and languages are defined by their syntax, whatever the technical details are

@james barrow all intelligent processor makers must make some c run on their products

the real language it uses is processing www.processing.org

@martin obviously you have not programmed arduinos using processing lol and arduino was directly inspired by processing not via wiring (i am saying about inspiration ) saying processing is not a language catches you, maybe you used it only as libs or never used processing at all in all aspect, you are not a processing fan, else you would not have missed some facts and since when language and projects were mutually exclusive? (and write what you have to say else i don't have a good responder on sololearn)

as someone who has used arduino, and done much research on the microprocessors used in their boards. The language C is the only one that really works with the arduino boards.

for me it is closer to c++ but I do not really remember all the stuff that was going in there. it just looks like a medium level language. v:
