Any language can do that. I'd choose first and foremost a language you are fast to develop in. After that, perhaps check if the language has libraries/modules for parallelization, opencl/cuda, for making simulations go fast.

But since almost every language these days has support for some sort of calculation toolkits, it doesn't really matter which one you choose. Just don't pick python, since it's slow as hell and its tries at using multiple cores are laughable.

What about c#?

Here.

Don't get me wrong, python is a nice language and really easy to prototype in but fucking hell it does not have any multithreading capabilities, and I think the Multiprocessing module is just an ugly workaround. That said, I haven't tried PyOpenCL.

Whatever floats your boat, I guess it's fast and easy enough to write code fast. In the end the choice of language doesn't really matter that much, since most languages have bindings to some fast libraries usually written in C/C++. If you can learn C# fast then go for it.
What sort of background do you have? Are you completely new to programming or do you have some background? Are you familiar with the math behind simulating e.g. two particles and their interactions?

I have background in c# and a bit of C.
I am in 2nd year of biotechnology and physics plays a big part in my degree, I was hoping to learn more about programming with this and have some fun while at it. I'd also like to write about it as I go so people can reproduce it. My end goal is to be able to simulate protein folding, but that's a long ways ahead, and I want to start with something simple

Just go with the language you know, projects like this are a great way to get to know more about programming.

Don't they usually use Fortran for scientific shit like that?

My favorite enemy is the dumb fuck self declared enemies of God. It's hilarious. They really screwed the pooch.

Obama and the atheist CIA wake each day and ask, "How can I fuck God, today?
We'll make nuns perform abortions. We make homos dance naked in Russian churches in front of old ladies. Isn't that hilarious? We'll make a complete mockery of marriage because, after all, niggers don't have fathers and that's not fair. Michelle wants no cupcakes for birthdays because of bastards. We'll make God hated -- for pedophiles and crazy insane sand-niggers. We'll drink fetus tomato soup with the queen and celebrate the end of birth. Having children is pedophillic. We'll slap a condom in ever African's bowl of cereal and make the 5 year old African girls learn how to put on a condom. We'll make churchs no longer tax exempt. <Giggle> We'll make all the conservative sons into liberal atheist homos. <Giggle> Will throw open the border and bring in Mexicans ruining race in American... doing this treason just for democratic votes. USA will be a slum like Mexico with niggers and Mexicans and no white people." That's what you want, right Obama? Obama has a revelation, "Yikes! What if there were no white people! Holy shit! I love white people, come back! How come white people don't have kids? Oh yeah, we made the white people covet the wealth of the dirty rich."
