C (lingua franca, super fast etc.)
X86ASM (embed in C code for extra hardware control)
Python (half assed scripting and higher level stuff)
Lisp (not very practical, but an elegant concept nonetheless)

for employment - Java, C#, PHP (plus HTML and related technologies, though it's not really a programming language)
for work efficiency - C++ and some scripting language other than PHP
for hobby use - Assembly, Prolog, Haskell

Which beard is customary to grow?

C, C++, python, java, lisp,

And I can be a 1337 h4ck3r?

get a job - Java, C#, PHP, Javascript
'useful' - Python, C, Perl
hobby - Lua, Haskell, Rust

It's good to know all the popular ones, such as C, C++, Java, C#, PHP, Python, JS. And of course you need to know SQL. It's important to note that memorizing language syntax isn't as useful as knowledge in commonly-used data structures, algorithms, their time complexities.

Java, JS, SQL, some functional language

TIBASIC - I'm still in high school

why is the one with the mustache on BASIC and not Haskell

anyone with a beard I automatically assume is a faggot.

That's a strange grouping of programming languages.

My thoughts exactly.

What's wrong with beards? Greeks favoured them.

For hobby use I've come to like Perl somewhat. Its syntax makes it more enjoyable than Python and it just works for the cases you would use these languages for - simple scripts to automate your shit.

So you'd call it useful?

Yes. I do think most people would beg to differ on this though since it doesn't shove object-oriented programming in your face. It's more of an afterthought than anything else in Perl.

python, c++, java, c, sql, fuck the web

i'd really like to learn opengl and possibly fortran/assembly eventually

i'm also proficient in sh and tcl but I don't know why I bothered

Why do you want to learn Fortran? Are you an engineer?

What's wrong with learning legacy languages?

...

Is that a poo in loo?

>x86asm

What's your suggestion then?

>sh
>tcl

kys lol

Well, assembly for whatever architecture you're developing for. So x64 asm, arm etc

FUCK YOU

PHP, python and javascript

I know others, but those are by far the most useful.. since everything uses them.

Alot of over exposed loud faggots can grow beards. Also doesn't help that casual streetwear that we buy in stores makes us all look like cucks.

what if i wanna become a hacker?

Not an expert here, but why not? "Hackers" are best suited to fix broken/bad code that would otherwise be targeted by malicious hackers.

A functional language (Scheme)
A systems language (C)
A higher level language (Python)

All you need nigga

Waht about the guys with a vandyke ?

this is pure, condensed shit

I just landed my first developer job and by far the most common language in use is Java, followed by JS and C++

Rust

I can't grow beards.
It's a blessing not having to shave every day.

Cheers, user.

One of those weirdo niché languages.

>What is a joke?
Did you really think we were seriously trying to categorise programmers by their beards, user?

Apparently Java is well paying too.

Maybe, it does certainly seem like an option.

...

What's wrong with facial hair, for sucks sake?

Not taking care of yourself, combined with lack of personal hygiene, looks dumb

You do know you can style and wash it right? Do you want to look like a child forever?

Perl

Asm to have an enlightened view on how shit gets done. Maybe C for the same reason. Any other language can literally be mastered in less than a week.

>for hobby use - Assembly, Prolog, Haskell

Anything language could be for hobby use.

Legacy, man, legacy.
