Some languages makes it easier, some make it hard. I would argue that PHP falls into the "hard" camp. And C would definitely be in the "very, very hard" camp.

And then you have stricter languages like C# which makes doing things proper the default, although often at the expense of making other things harder.

That said: This is definitely crossing the line between factual and subjective right now. And I can see how this is a subject open to discussion.
