New 100%. Oh dear.
I know I guessed Scala, Ruby, Haskall and probably Python, Objective C and Ada. But it was interesting to see the clues. Pascal's unique comments. Logo's unique function declaration. C++'s stream class. Forth's distinctive syntax. :-)

New Thanks. I think...
Of all the older languages they had, I have actually programmed in Fortran, COBOL, Logo and Pascal. And I knew some historical quirks of Objective C and Ada which helped me not only identify those but also identify others which weren't those. :-)

I reckon they should have included SNOBOL as well, although I imagine most of their readers wouldn't know it!
