So what programming languages dy'all know, anyhow?

Weedpacket

...well enough to code in, anyway?

Eg.,
BASIC, Fortran, Javascript, Perl, PHP, VBScript. I suppose things like Mathematica and Brainf*ck count as well...
Any INTERCAL gurus out there? If there are, you're all sick. 🙂

SpasePeepole

I know a little bit of all but I am aiming to learn Javascript, PHP, and maybe a little Perl fully. PHP I know the most about

interactive

PHP, ASP, Assembler (big thing for me right now), Java (taking this in college), c,and cpp. Used to be big into COBOL, but its been so long since I've messed with it I don't remember much at all.

tomhath

Hmmm. Languages I've been paid to code in?

Assembler, ALGOL, FORTRAN, Pascal, C, Perl, Tcl/Tk, SQL, various scripting for Web development (Javascript, VBScript, php, etc), various proprietary 3GL scripting

Languages I tried but never really did much with?

Lisp, SNOBOL, Ada, Modula2

jeremuck

a bit of Assembler, bit of javascript and java. PHP and C++ are the top two.
Aiming to learn LISP, Perl, and maybe Python.
I'm finding that the completely different syntax to be a bit of a stumbling block.
does WSDL or SOAP count?
Not much use for ASP is there?

Where can I read something on INTERCAL. scratch that... what is your beef with INTERCAL? I've heard some vague negative statements that I find very intriguing.

Oh, even INTERCAL programmers consider INTERCAL to be a seriously perverted language.

jeremuck

oh man...
I don't know whether to puke or bust a gut laughing.
Even the one that counts to ten is insanely complex.

I don't even know what to think when I see a link to a "standard" library that is made available for the purpose of [sic] "Implements basic arithmetic operations not included in the INTERCAL language: addition, subtraction, multiplication, division; as well as two routines returning random deviates."

Addition is not included in the language?!?!?!

The comments by these people are extremely funny.
And so is some of the source:
(65) DON'T GIVE UP
(34) PLEASE DON'T GIVE UP

marianna

hmm...

know pretty well:
C, C++, Perl, Java, UNIX shell scripting, some various web stuff (HTML, Javascript, JSP, PHP)

written small programs in/played with:
Prolog, Modula2, ML, Matlab, flex & bison, Assembler

And if you don't say "PLEASE" often enough it complains that you're too rude, an if you say it too often it suspects you're taking the proverbial...

It makes you wonder sometimes just what qualifies as a programming language...

jeremuck

I thought that was a joke.

What about the probability of the following code being executed statement? That's not real, right?

barand

These are the ones I've earned a crust with over the years

nicol, cobol,bcpl, pascal (delphi), tas,dbase/foxpro,c, c++, beeb basic,vb, vbscript, vba, postscript, sql, asp, php, java, javascript.

Ummm, none?

That's why I'm here, to learn from the guruz.....

I thought I'd learn to shell script in csh, then I heard it was considered harmful....

Oh, yes, there was this:

10 PRINT "I LEARNED BASIC"
20 PRINT
30 GOTO 10

I've looked into JavaScript, but I'm too dense (or perhaps inexperienced) to see the excitement in OOP....

However, one bright spot: I'm getting better at PHP !!!!

Thanks to 'youse guys'

Ok im no guru... Well at least i dont think anyway..

Ok
I did Qbasic but i dont think i can count that..

Ok
PHP, Javscript(Limited amounts) of course HTML..

Once i know OOP and can code that like a breeze i think ASP is next.

I know some basic Syntax in Python.. But i dont really like it that much...

My aim is to learn C++ and make something really cool.. but ill be an old man by then

Trygve_Grimnes

I know: php, c++, java2, vb, and possibly some more that I forgot to list.

Currently learning: Intercal, man that was a cool language.. Printing the manual.

greg252

PHP, C, Python (some), VB, JAVA, web-stuff-HTML and Javascript.

Nothing compares to PHP- I eat it for breakfast!

piersk

PHP, Java, Perl (small amounts of), C. Bout it really...

Sxooter

Languages known:

6502 assembly
68k assembly
Basic (don't laugh, it was the only language we had on a burroughs machine that worked, and we weren't allowed to install any other languages, so.....)
Pascal
C
C++ (a little, prefer C, I too don't get excited about OO for most projects.)
PHP
Perl
Reverse Polish Lisp (on of my favorites)
plsql
Rexx (a dim memory now, but I loved it on the Amiga. Very powerful for IPC stuff)

I do not know and never care if I get to know Cobol. The one time I viewed some Cobol code I was in a haze all afternoon, incoherently babbling, and only able to come out of my stupor by playing pool, studying physics, and drinking beer.

crickettdt

PHP, HTML, some ASP, some JavaScript, some VBA. Hoping to learn C# and ASP.NET in the future. Have read a few chapters of a Java book - but haven't had any projects to go and really work in Java on.

Of course SQL, the most fun of them all!

_SuperString

did know -> basic for the specy (hehe), visual basic
still know -> coldfusion, asp/vbscript, php, javascript, sql
kinda know -> cpp, java, perl, xml/xsl/wml/etc..

I pretty much only do php/javascript/sql right now though.

dont fancy learning python, I had a look at it and its really ugly (and so is the overall attitude/impression I got from their website)
