What programming language are you proficient in?

The thing with computer languages is that knowing one means you can easily pick up others that are in the same type. The language is more a syntax to perform the logic. The difference scome in what the languages are used for and then what level of language they are.
Your lowest level language is machine code, which you don't ever do much in unless you are working a on a very lower level project.
Next you have assembly. Assembly is a chip level language that is different between chip manufacturers. Knowing one makes it easier to use others, but they are not the same. It is good to have a basic understanding of an assembly language if you ever are programming embedded systems and need to debug very lower levels of functionality.
After that you have your basic languages like Fortran, C, Basic, etc. C has become the language most widely used. This is the level of languages known as "human readable" as they use words that can be read and understood easily. The reason behind this level was because you can teach this to someone and they can work anywhere which differs from teaching assembly because that will depend on the chip company that the job is using. A lot of things are actually based in this level even for other levels of languages. For example the Perl compiler is written in C.
After this level you have what I call the high level languages which are things like C# and Java. These almost always require some kind of SDK to work with and are a language that removes some of the direct memory handling and also gives you the option for object oriented programming. (C++ can do this as well.) These languages will be used for applications (games, writing programs, etc.)
You then have script languages like Perl, VBA, and JavaScript that don't get compiled but run through the sequence of instructions and get carried out at run time.
Python is a cross between a high level language and a script language. Originally you didn't actually compile the Python file. They now have an ability to produce executable Python which moves it into the higher level languages more.
You also have the web based languages which I know the least about beyond HTML. HTML is not compiled and is simply a means to make a displayable format to what you've written. It's less logic. Hence why it's Hyper Text MARKUP Language. You also have RST.
You have a category of languages that are chip level like VHDL and Verilog. I do not know where these are used the industry as the only place I've seem them was in college.
As for the frustrations of people who go into programming it depends on what you are looking at doing and what your expectations are when you get into it. If you think you're going to get a Computer Science degree then get a job where you design a brand new game from scratch, then you are going to be let down. For the most part very little in code is done by a single person. Starting off you will likely be doing the basic work, but it can move quickly to more advance things. The glamor and the spotlight you see for coders/engineers are the ones who get up there and do something that catapults them into view. This is why some people think this is how it works for everyone, but in reality you will do a lot of work that will not standout individually but is still a fundamentally important part of the product.
As for what languages I know this depends on "know", "use", and "am proficient in" as they are all important.
Proficient in: C, VBA, and C#
Use: Perl, RST, and One core chip specific Assembly.
Know: *JavaScript, *Java, Python (only a little), *HTML (haven't used it in a long time), Verilog and VHDL, SQL (barely), C++
* I've written enough in these to be able to likely move them into the Use column if I actually had a need for them.
I could likely pick up any language needed as beyond C, Java, Verilog, and VDHL I have no formal training and have picked them all up on my own. I also haven't used Java, Verilog, and VDHL in a very very long time.
I taught myself BASIC as a child, then moved on to pascal, C and finally assembly by the time I was 10.
Now I can program just about anything, it usually takes less than a week for me to become proficient in the latest programming language de jure. I've litteraly corrected errors in code without even knowing what language it was written in (how I learned Fortran)
Frankly most new programming languages are completely unnecessary and are the results of a programmers ego trip. They all seem to evolve into a less capable version of C anyway.
I used to be really good at python but a few years of not doing anything in the language has made me slow at it, I'm super good at Java tho! Recently programmed a something which yoinks. csv COVID data from the Bing Github and shows it as a widget on your computer home screen!
My main languages are Python and Solidity, but I’ve also done a little bit of Java back in the day.
Oh and I’ve done VB at college
So you're a Muslim brit female that studying to become a 'barrister' and knows how to code? My thoughts about you were different.
Lol where did I say I was studying to be a barrister? I’m not studying to be a barrister lol.
Yes, I take law but I want to go into cyber security and having some kind of legal background makes it easier and opens more doors in the cyber security industry.
And what has me being Muslim and British got to do with any of this?
Yeah, and it was actually a Jewish moderator that removed your comments soooo make what you will of that😂😂
You know, in a way I actually feel feel sorry for you. It’s genuinely devastating to see the level of brainwashing that has taken place to the point that you’re the one with an extremist and terrorist mindset, not me- yet of course you’d attach that viewpoint to me because I’m Muslim.
I don’t want to ruin anything, I was born here lol, like it or not, I’ve never been anywhere else so this is home- and I’m not going anywhere anytime soon, we made mass contributions to this place too so if you don’t like it, then you piss off out of my backyard lol
Except the difference between you and I is, I’m not the one with an extremist or terrorist mentality, you are because that’s the kind of content you’ve been brainwashed with. You’re actually scared of me, that’s why you’re putting up this front telling me I shouldn’t be in cyber security, telling me that I shouldn’t live in my home, it’s okay little boy, little pusillanimous, there’s no need to be scared- it’s okay I promise you I’m friendly🥰
Although if I ignore the fact that you're Muslim it's pretty good to see people choosing a career path rather than being freeloaders and criminals. If these people respect my culture and agree to eat pork and don't pray then I'd accept them and call them my family.
“All these terror attacks” Can you statistically tell me how many terror attacks there’s actually been from Muslims, then compare that with the Muslim population in Europe as a whole? What I find most ironic is you’re saying this, which is understandable given you’re a child who’s been groomed, manipulated and brainwashed most likely by people online, but actually there’s been a rise in terrorism from people with your mentality- the far-right.
Why are you so afraid of Masjids? In many places in Europe they’re being used as COVID testing centers and vaccination centers- surely, is that not an asset to society during the pandemic? Muslims donate millions to charity each Ramadan in the UK, is that not an asset?
There’s no need to be afraid, I promise😅
And why do you have an issue with Muslims praying and not eating pork? See this is how I can tell you’ve been brainwashed. You’re a kid, who has decided you want to convert to Judaism, and you have an issue with Muslims praying and not eating pork. Yet in the religion of Judaism Jewish people, are also prohibited from eating pork just like Muslims. Jewish people pray 3 times a day whereas Muslims pray 5 times a day.
There are actually many similarities between Islam and Judaism.
And how much do you actually know about Muslims and Islam? I’ll tell you, you know nothing- perhaps you know about some negative parts within the Muslim community that perhaps have been highlighted and most likely amplified to you, hence you’re scared of me, a small girl who in reality is probably a lot less physically capable than you lol- but sure you can be scared of me lol. But one thing I can guarantee is you know nothing about Islam. Because if you did, you wouldn’t fear Muslims, you’d embrace us.
Yes the rabbi rejected me because according to her my reasons to embrace Judaism were motivated by some motives she found to be controversial and since when did women became rabbis? I'm unlucky that we don't have orthodox Ashkenazi Jewish rabbis around me. I've decided to look into Odinist paganism because it goes well with my love for hunting and my ethno-nationalist pride since it's not a foreign religion but native to my land. May our blood became as red as your ancestors who unleashed hell on the world.
To be honest, I’m unsure about the ruling of women Rabbis whether it’s Orthodox or Reform Judaism, I’m not entirely schooled on Judaism if I’m honest I just know a little bit.
I don’t blame her for rejecting your plea, it’s extremely problematic. Being Jewish surely means you should care about all Jewish people, right? Ashkenazis, Sephardic, Mizrahi, Ethiopians- yet you only care about one kind of Jew, the one who looks like you. I believe even an Ashkenazi Orthodox Rabbi would have rejected your plea.
I honestly have a question, is the reason you’re looking into religion because you want to find truth?
Ah right, I wasn’t really a developer lol, just a kid who was bored at home and I discovered Scratch and W3Schools😂😂
😂😂😂Lol welp I’m a student so I have plenty of time to experiment and try new stuff lol
I'm curious about Judaism because this conflict has left us puzzled and divided and we need to unite the global right wing like they attempted to do so in Charlottesville in America. We should learn from the mistake of our ancestors and embrace the tactics used by our enemies and learn from their success and mistakes. Like Al Qaeda for example they are very successful in defending their religion and their so called cult of martyrdom, if we want these people to go back then we must become what they fear so much that they came here and left their nation. Also being born without a religion and a mixed identity is puzzling to me even though I was always supported by my friends and the people whom I idolise. I've become a ranked member of of the youth wing of the Nordic resistance and sverige demokrats towards my ambition in being a politician and leading my country towards greatness we've already defeated the left with historically highest votes ever given to us in the local elections I do my part and help guide our nation on the righteous path. We've gone from winning 2% of the national vote to 17% after the migrant crisis and I want us to win the elections and end a century of liberal socialist rule.

I started programming in the 70s with Basic, and punch card machine language. I also know a bit of Visual Basic, Assembly, LISP, Java, C+ and C#. I currently design in Unity using primarily PlayMaker visual scripting. Throwing in some C# where that language fails.
What are you trying to make? I see real life physical results all the time. Maybe you should switch to Arduino and robotics if you are trying to build for the physical world. Im currently working on a robotic lawnmower thats about as physical as it gets.
I'm kind of interested in Arduino though and looking at your profile I see we have similar interests. I practice swordsmanship too since I'm proud of my heritage and culture.
I practice Hopak (I'm descended from Cossacks) and Szabla (also I'm historically Prussian and have inherited my great great grandfather's sabre) my preferred sword is my Shashka, also have dabbled in a bit of Glima with a longsword as well.
@nikolai2004 I've been trying to learn more and more python, as well as HTML, and not sure what scripting language, but the end result, is a MySQL database, back end, and an interactive Browser interface for people in my company to access product specifications, and a SHIT LOAD of other data, in a browser form! Microsoft is killing Explorer, next year, and not sure how to make all of this work with Edge, or maybe some Linux-based, Open-source browser.
I've got bits and pieces of the puzzle! What do you have, young WIZARD? :)
Not used some in years however (mainly used for Aicraft systems and others systems), some are current and link to work aspects.
Assembly (also some machine code), quite handy to know
Fortran
Cobol
Bash and Perl
SQL
JS
Universe
C, C++ .
LISP (and Scheme)
Ruby
LUA
the above are at various levels, I do head a team that are rather qualified in them, so I tend to just read as opposed to do.
Damn are you in the RAF?
Possibly
Well I respect you know and please forgive me for being disrespectful towards you before but I didn't know you loved your country I thought you were a labour voter, who bowed to Islam and bignigs and was ready to not sing Rule Brittania and praise Churchill but you turned out to be a real nationalist, God save the Queen and thank you. I'm sorry for bothering you before.
I'm fascinated with CSS, my code can get really hectic at times and othertimes i just wanne cry in a corner but i always get back to it cuz the potential things you can do is just beautiful
I heard this in a YouTube tutorial that a lot of young programmers quit early on because they never get to see physcial representation and application of their work while being at the initial stages of their career.
C, C , C#, java, javascript, kotlin, basic, three assembly languages a few game specific ones, python, php, html5. I no longer really keep track of them, it's just syntax and a slow down. The logical thinking and problem solving is the same.
I used to be good with Pascal, then had to learn Java, Java Script, C++, Scala, probably some more, but forgot to mention...
Now probably should learn Python.
Just to add to list: PHP, HTML, CSS, XML, SQL,..., but those are not programming languages.
I never got into learning computer programming but it sounds like an awesome thing to learn.
Python
Java
C/C /C#
HTML
CSS
JavaScript/TypeScript
SQL
VB
Solidity
This is as far as languages go but I also know many frameworks that work with them so in some of them I know many ways to use it
I know c++, Java, Visual Basic, c# and Unreal Engine Blueprints.
But I only ever use Blueprints now.
I have very good at. net,
I know how to read: ASM, C++, java, javascript, Pyhton, LUA, HTML, XML. With it I can troubleshoot bugs or add features to software.
I've probably forgotten many of the details but: FORTRAN, IITRAN, BAL, and COBOL.
i'm only familiar with stata. and i think it uses C.
I haven’t programmed C++ for awhile. I’m awesome at Excel VBA, and Google App Scripting. I wanted to take online coarses to program iPhone apps.
i used to know C++ and web design with html xml xhtml css java and php nuke apache mysql that was almost 20 years ago. i don't code anymore. there were others i forgot off the top of my head. i dabbled in vb but i sucked at it.
I'm proficient in my own custom language, I started working on it when I was 12 and inspired by my father who builds desktop computers (they're wall mounted now)
I tried learning html and css. Absolutely hated it. One of the most boring things I’ve ever done
I was introduced to Python, R, SQL, bash, ruby, and makefile. I like bash and Python the most but I don’t think I will get into programming just doesn’t interest me enough.
I am studying computer science but we learned programming mostly in Java and c .
However I think if you learned a couple of programming languages you can learn all the others quite easy.
I can generally understand most languages but I'm unable to write any.
I'm skilled at pseudo code and data manipulation.
VB, C , SQL.
I would like to learn assembler at some point though.
I had 2 semesters of C++. I had a Fortran course and learned nothing. I have used BASIC and SQL.
98% of the internet is using php. So thats what i chose to learn and used it a ton. I don't know why so many developers dont or won't learn it.
I am a software developer. My strengths are JavaScript (and Typescript).
Fluxcapacitor Orange.
Back to the future?
Hey odd do you have a mirroless camera?
Honestly none i'm bloody useless at all that
HTML, Java and Python.
HTML doesn’t count as a programming language, HTML is a markup language. It’s still coding, but it’s not really classified as a programming language.☺️
@SpiderManFan2002 Haha, nice catch!
@ThoughtfulSoul I’m confused😅What do you mean?😅
@SpiderManFan2002 Basically, thanks for letting me know🙃
@ThoughtfulSoul No worries if you ever need help with anything in the future hit me up☺️
Python, C#, and (don't laugh) VB.
Python, C, Java, Scala
I can write in cursive
Python, am working on C and C now.
Java, C, C++, Python, Perl, shell scripting
C, Javascript, Python.
Cp or c++17
Slowpoke
I’m really good at python. C++ is rather basic
