I am doing a project on prediction with neural networks. I have searched through a lot of material and found that most programmers prefer MATLAB or C++, JAVA or C# is very rarely used. Use of MATLAB is not allowed for me so I want to know what should I use, C++ or JAVA?
Is there any problem with JAVA or its libraries?
And finally what should I use, JAVA or C++? (I am more comfortable with JAVA but can also become familiar with C++).
