I used Axe for maths when i needed to do over 9000 operations for a statistics experiment
The teacher was confident we couldn't just run a program on the calc because it would take too long to get a good estimate

Very nice! I use Axe for graphing actually. GraphX is nowhere near release, but I put the equation on the top of the source code, and when my friends are 30 seconds (at best) from a complicated graph of inequalities, I get a much better quality one in the time it takes to recompile and run GraphX (displaying the graph takes mere moments).

There was a time where one of my favorite option would have been hybrid BASIC. However, I found xLIB to be a major hassle to use because the command syntax is too long to remember. It was awesome, though. Now it's more pure-BASIC (although Illusiat 13 used a little ASM lib to run archived programs) and Axe. I like Axe because the syntax is similar to TI-BASIC in many cases so it took me less time to get used to it. It's also not too hard to use except some of the lower level stuff.
For now my favorites in order would be Axe, TI-BASIC then hybrid-TI-BASIC. I need to learn ASM eventually, though, now that I understand a few memory stuff, thanks to Axe. I may not do huge things in it, though, because some very simple things requires insane amount of lines of code and huge games are apparently hard to debug. I also need to give Doors CS7 BASIC libs a try one day.
I feel that all languages can do amazing things. We just have to look at everything that got featured on ticalc.org and a lot of other games that came out.

Agreed, DJ.
z80 ASM and BASIC here. BASIC for math things and quick programs and z80 ASM for most else

Hybrid BASIC and Axe for me. I'm pretty good with Pure BASIC, but I just love Hybrid.

I wish I could have voted BBC basic, but it would have been a lie
It looks really nice, but so few people actually use it that it's a lot harder to figure out how it works.

I said BASIC/ Hybrid BASIC. I haven't messed with or am not familiar enough with any of the others. =D

Axe and BASIC. ASM would have been my third choice. Haven't done hybrid in two years
Never tried BBC, unfortunately.

I think one thing that didn't help BBC Basic was the on-calc editor. If it used something like the BASIC one, it would probably have gotten as much popularity as Axe.

Yeah probably, although the fact that you also need a large App in order to play it (and that you have to enter command line in order to play) probably didn't help either

Did you know that BBC Basic is actually a pre-existing language?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BBC_BASIC
Yeah, it hasn't caught on for calcs, though.
