Programming language for self-modifying code?

Question

• I am recently thinking about writing self-modifying programs, I think it may be powerful and fun. So I am currently looking for a language that allows

Personally, I find it quite strange that you find assembly easier to handle than C#. I find it even stranger that you think that assembly isn't as powerful: you can't get any more powerful than raw machine language. Anyway, to each his/her own.

C# has great reflection services, but if you have an aversion to that.. If you're really comfortable with C or C++, you could always write a program that writes C/C++ and issues it to a compiler. This would only be viable if your solution doesn't require a quick self-rewriting turn-around time (on the order of tens of seconds or more).

Javascript and Python both support reflection as well. If you're thinking of learning a new, fun programming language that's powerful but not massively technically demanding, I'd suggest Python.
