Which language is the best for writing a porgram for a card game played over the net?

blanket asked:


A friend of mine and I want to write a program for a 4-player card game. We would like it to eventually be played over the net. We have some basic programming skills and have no doubt that this is a difficult and long process. What I’m asking for is for a first pointing in the right direction. I don’t want to write the whole code and then have to re-do it just so it’ll be possible to play on the net. I would appreciate any pointers, insight and other relevant tips? Thank you.
