Your question is like asking what are the limitations of English, French, and Spanish or which coordinate system is best: Cartesian, cylindrical, or spherical.
For all intensive purposes, languages are not limited; it's just a matter of simplicity. Programming languages equate well with their verbalized counterparts: a spoken language might have a word that captures a concept succinctly while others would need a descriptive phrase (In programming, this equates to supported features).

No matter how hard you try in Java, you can't manually manipulate the memory. That counts as a limitation.

| I am pretty good in java, and ok in c++. I've taken about 4 years worth of java programming classes etc. I must admit, java < C++. One major downfall is that you can't change the array length in java, which you can do in c++.

Change array size in C++? How?
realloc on a pointer? that's like allocating some new memory space then copy the old array over and free the old one. The same could basically be accomplished in Java by declaring a new array reference, then use the System.arraycopy method.
Or do you prefer linked lists? C++ implements vectors in its standard library, and so does Java under the Vector class. You could implement your own linked list if you want.
I don't remeber any other way you can change array size in these two languages...

what about perl limitations? ive had no limitations in not being able to make a programm work the way i want hell programming is just a set of instructions anyway
i think perl is more user friendly with modules and stuff so yeah
c# can be related to perl a lot as i have herd but people say perl is easier until you get to regex lol
anyone know about ruby?

Of course assembly has the biggest possibilities, it is also fastest language.
