Best Reference Site For Each Programming Language?

Posted by samzenpus on from the spread-the-word dept.

Howling writes "I've been a PHP programmer for a few years and after taking a trip through many sites Ive learned that www.php.net is probably the most complete source when looking for information/documentation. I have been trying to find similar sites for every other language (Java, perl or ASP, for instance) without equal success, though. I ask: what is the best documentation/reference site for your preferred programming language?"

    I don't know. I've recently had to use PHP for something, and I've been struggling to find out the performance of each function. For example, the php.net articles on count()/sizeof() functions on an array tell me nothing of whether it's O(1) or O(n). PHP really strikes me as a programming language for non-CS majors.
