Which languages do you know?

Which programming languages do you know?

And before anybody says "well 'know' is subjective and could mean many things," just post what languages you consider you know. If you say anything like that I'm going to point you right back to this post.

I would say that I know:
VB.NET
C#

A whole 2 for me. PHP is on the way though. I'm excited to see the long lists. Post away long time pros. :bigyello:

From memory, the ones I've used enough to "know" are:

Classic VB
SQL (in various guises, such as T-SQL)
VBScript (mainly in ASP or eVB)
VB.Net
C++/C
C#
Pascal/Modula2
Java
JavaScript
QBasic
PHP

(roughly in order of how much I've used them!)

VB
PHP (Some)
C and Some C++
HTML
Action Script (Flash)
I dont know what else... but hey, I have a lot of time to learn... :D

Languages I currently use:

VB.NET/ASP.NET
VB6
VBScript/Classic ASP
PHP (still learning it though)
C#

Languages I've used in the past:

C
C++
MASM
COBOL
Fortran
Pascal
QuickBasic and other MSBASIC variants
VB1 to VB5

'Used' in this context means that I've either created or maintained a program of significant size and complexity written in the language. 'Current' means that I've done this with a language in the in the past 6 months.

VB5/6
Delphi
Flash MX

Advanced in:
-VB6
-HTML & CSS

Able to make some applications and scripts in:
-VB.Net
-PHP (+MySQL)
-Javascript

Limited knowledge to:
-C#
-Pascal

EDIT:
I also know some French and German and I master Dutch, English and Portuguese.
(but that's probably not what you meant with languages :bigyello: )

PDP-11 Basic
PDP-11 Basic2
PDP-11 Fortran
VAX-11 Basic (truly nice platform - had .Net Framework concepts back in 1982)
VAX-11 Dibol (I wish I could forget)
VAX-11 Cobol
VAX-11 Macro
VB6
VB.Net (2005 now)

and most important T-SQL ;)

VB6 (memory is fading...which is good:cool: )
VB .Net
C#

In progress:
C++

Good lists! I had to look up most of those on szlamany's list. :bigyello:

VB6
VB.NET (finally getting started :D :thumb: )
T-SQL
PL/SQL
Some C# & C++ (I don't really have a call for these so I've not had the opportunity to hone any true skills but I can muddle my way through when necessary)

VB6
VB.Net (2005)
T-SQL
PL/SQL

Some
C
C++
java
XML
Fortran
Cobal

VB 3-.NET
C#
HTML
XML
SQL
VBScript
C(ANSI)
Ada
Pascal
Used to know ASM, but haven't used it in decades
COBOL
VBA
PHP
BASIC/BASICA/GWBASIC/QBASIC
Apple BASIC
LOGO (any one remember that?)

-tg

• APL (quite vaguely)
• BaSH (extremely vaguely)
• BS (don't ask)
• C
• C++ (I can bluff my way through it)
• C#
• CSS
• HTML
• PHP
• Java
• JavaScript
• SGML (some)
• SQL (whatever variant is on hand)
• Q-BASIC
• VB 5–6
• VB.NET 2003–2005
• VBScript
• x86 ASM (again, vaguely)
• XSL
• XML

You can choose whether or not to count the "vague" ones in there. :)


P.S.: I'm looking for functional languages to learn, if anyone has any suggestions. I thought I might try Lisp, or Haskell.

Sorry to say yes. I haven't touched or even thought about it in more years the I would care to admint and probably couln't touch it again.

Ooh, was that the one with the turtle thing?
That was loads of fun. I remember playing with it at school. :D

Since both penagate and tg mentioned, it I will too.

You can add ASM, but, like tg, I haven't used it in a very long time.

have written code in:

COBOL
FORTRAN
Pascal
assembler
LINC
MCL
various iterations of BASIC & QBASIC

Currently use:
VB6
VB2005

Ones I'm Familiar With:
C#
J#
VB.NET
JavaScript
VBScript
ASP
DOS Batch
BASH
Tcl/TK
Qt/Cups
Python
PHP

Ones I use regularly:
C
C++
Java
VB 6
HTML/DHTML/XHTML/CSS
XML/XSL/XSLT/XPath/XQuery
ARM7 & ARM9 ASM
SQL

I played around with RPGCode and GMC but that was when I first started programming a long time ago. I'm currently working on learning Lua and finishing learning Python.

C#
VB/VBA
C++
SQL

In the last year and a half I haven't written much of anything except for SQL.

I've done mostly T-SQL stored procedures here for the past 6 years...

Which brings up my biggest gripe - what the heck are language and syntax people thinking when LEFT/MID/RIGHT and SUBSTRING all work completely different in every language - that's plain old mean :mad:

Now .Net has "offset" in SUBSTRING instead of actual position - it's a nightmare :p

I'm convinced it is to keep people like you and I on our toes. :lol:

I am convinced its there to make me look like an idiot... "Oh just type blah blah blah..."... someone else.. "it doesn't work... " me.. "lemme see.."

That's a lot of languages from everybody! I better get going. :bigyello:

We have a lot of years behind us.

I have to add to this...

Once you get a handful of languages under your belt they are all exactly the same.

Syntax and construct differences are a pain - but logic is logic - you cannot avoid that. Doesn't matter if it's some kind of MACRO/ASM machine level language or FORTRAN/COBOL or BASIC.

The only thing that is truly unique in the pile of languages I've used is T-SQL since you have to stop thinking in an iterative and conditional fashion and start considering how to arrive at your solution using SET-BASED logic. That is different - and actually hard at first to conquer.

-sz I think that is true in any database based language including Oracle PL/SQL

Yes - I would imagine that - I was separating T-SQL (along with PL/SQL - which I have never used) from the long lists of 3GL's that have been given here.

ACCESS - again which I have never used - seems to allow you to imbed VB functions in your queries - seems wrong to me.

But I'm going off topic here ;)

• VB.NET 2003–2005
• C#
• Perl
• JavaScript
• HTML
• CSS
• QuickBASIC
• VB6
• ASP
• PHP
• Haskell
• Java
• AVR-ASM
• VHDL
• C (ANSI & C-99)
• MBASIC
• Breve
• Batch file (MS-DOS)
• XML
• SQL
• PL/pgSQL
• Bash
• Tk
• OpenGL
• LolCode

Some of those I haven't used in years (VB6, ASP). Others I use all the time (Perl, Bash). And there are some that I would rather forget (AVR-ASM, Breve).

I would highly recommend learning Haskell. It gives you a totally new way of thinking about programming, and you realise that some things that were previously hard become incredibly easy to code. I have also heard good things about lisp. It's used as the macro language in the Emacs text editor.

If you're looking for some black magic to learn, give Perl a try. Be warned though, if you go down that path you might never return :bigyello:.

I have knowledge of...

• VB 6
• VB 2003/5
• PHP
• URC Macros

I know:
REALbasic, VB6, VB.NET, C#, PowerBuilder PowerScript, Advanced Revelation R/Basic, Pascal, C, SQL, PL/SQL and Java.

But I greatly prefer basic-like languages because I find them the easiest to read.

Paul Lefebvre
REALbasic Community Evangelist

What I use regularly:

Classic VB
C#
C++

What I know but hardly use:

HTML
JavaScript
MASM

chem

VB6
PowerBASIC
Python
VB.NET
C#
C++
ASM (a little more because of the reverse engineering i done :P)

and well i know HTML but i wouldn't it include it.

this thread probably needs a poll. :)

i know
VB
JAVA
C#
VB .NET
Perl
Unix Shell Scripting (only bits)
Windows Shell Scripting (only bits)
C
Java scripting.

there are too many languages to have a poll

PHP isn't a language n00b...

:)

ASM (6502, 8080, 6800, 8086)
C
Forth
Fortran
HTML, ASP
JavaScript
Logo (used to work for a company that owned an MIT distro)
Pascal, including Delphi
Perl
SBasic, GWBasic, QBasic, AppleSoft
SQL

And hasn't anyone else ever programmed in ATLAS?

not many delphi-ers...

Delphi (very well)
GM (years ago, easy to learn)
VB (years ago, also easy)
Flash (cant remember much of it)
HTML/javascript (been years, very easy though)
Irish (only after some guiness) ;)

maybe some others too, attempted CPP a few times, cant stand it though

Maybe it has the slightest to do with the fact that this forums isn't known for the delphi section (which is an 'other programming languages' section and consists of 75 threads...) ;)

I know that delphi can be a second language to someone, but you get my point, don't you?
