I probably shouldn't prolong this thread but... Maybe this cartoon will help: https://blog.toggl.com/save-princess-8-programming-languages/ More seriously, I was recently asked which languages to learn and I wrote up a list of what I thought was important. See below. On 18/10/2019 03:33, Turritopsis Dohrnii Teo En Ming wrote: This is just a quick survey. May I know what programming languages do you know? I am considering being a programmer or developer. How long will it take for me to master a programming language like C++, Java, and Python? I'm not a professional programmer but programming is part of my job. I mostly find myself using using C#, _javascript_, Typescript, _vbscript_, and PHP. I expect to soon need to know some Powershell, Python, and possibly Kotlin (or Java). I also like the look of Rust but it's a big learning curve. But all that is just me. Anyway, below is the list that I mentioned. Current Mainstream Languages. (Know a few of them well. Which ones depends on your likely employer, your actual or like projects, and your preferences). Listed in no particular order.
Current Less Popular Languages. (Be aware of them, some awareness of them. Some are increasing in popularity, some are reducing in popularity). Listed in no particular order.
Others, Historical, Niche. (To have at least looked at very, very briefly so as to be aware of their existence, look and focus). Listed in no particular order.
