Which programming language to choose for a specific task?

Question

Programming

It is necessary to write a program to account for the construction of roads:
- equipment (own, hired) at the facility daily
- material (surplus, shortage) according to recipes per 1 km of the road
- workers (exit, absenteeism, working hours, facility)
Before the introduction of the initial procurement, they gave about 7 months, then about 7 months for revision together with interested parties.
I am a system administrator, I was engaged in programming only in 1s 7.7. I understand that accounting is 1s. But the boss is ready to pay for any training so that I write this program and I would like to use this opportunity to learn something else. In servers, computers, hosting, I am not constrained. What language can you advise for these purposes based on the timing and lack of skills?

Answer 1

Well, that is, you will learn the language and immediately be able to make architecture?

Answer 2

I'm afraid the boss just has no idea how much dough it is.
When he finds out, this one "ready to pay" for him will quickly evaporate.
Do on 1C. She's built for it.
And even on 1C it will not be fast and not cheap - if you are not a pro in it.
In other languages, you will not have to solve an applied task,
but also solve a million related tasks along the way, which is simply an inefficient waste of other people's money.

Answer 3

In this case, 1C is the ideal option. Just not 7.7, take 8.3.

Answer 4

Can any of the participants in the discussion reasonably reject the banal LAMP? With PHP in the lead role (with or without a framework).
It is clear that much will have to be done by hand. Well, the TS is not averse to learning, and the task, perhaps, is not at all as voluminous as it seems at first glance.
