Well if you only have 10 days left I would recommend you use the language you are most comfortable with.

IMO, I would use PHP. :)

Well what languages do you know? I wouldnt recomend learning a new one in 10 days to do the assignment. It would be a pretty simple task in any language that you knew, so just take your pick.
