Due to 10 question limits, I can't list all the popular languages

Idk yet, only used javascript and dicked around making super simple python scripts, and I know enough to know they aint it.
Probably going to learn C alongside the projects I start once I finish the webdev course im following. Figure learning C++'s additions and even picking up Rust will be slightly easier once I actually know firsthand what they try and improve on.

Minecraft command language
i mean if youre learning c then youre also learning c++ and vice versa. like im certain theyre just the same language.WitherMite wrote:

All C code is valid C++ yea, but C++ adds a lot more of its own stuff and way of doing things on top.ClevelandsMyBro wrote:

From what ive found looking around people say actually writing C++ code is different than writing C in C++.
Common Lisp, of course. And Crystal. Those are all I ever want to use lol
C++, it's what games worth talking about are made of :p
It depends of the project

best is scratch what the fuck are you guys on
I'm not sure for now, but JavaScript is like home to me. It's my main programming language and my first ever serious programming language that I use, but I also wanna learn some new languages too like Java, Go, Rust, and PHP. I've learned Python from college, and now C, by the way.

Honestly, scratch is a very annoyong "language" to use. Programming in python, and maybe even doing the wires manually, is wayyyy easier.Patatitta wrote:

It seems like nearly every college here taught python as the first programming language lol.NaiNonTheN00b1 wrote:

Python and C# imo
I'm a super mega nerd and anything other than C should be abolished so I had to correct this.
Both languages have evolved their own separate ways and some features of modern C don't exist or are implemented differently in C++.
If you don't use these you're basically writing in a 50+ years old version of C, which is kinda stupid, and compiling it with a C++ compiler instead of a C compiler is even more stupid.
That's why you should stop saying C/C++, it makes about as much sense as saying Java/Kotlin or Pascal/Delphi (if you know what these are I'm sorry).
Was true when C++ originally came out, stayed mostly true throughout the years but not exactly.WitherMite wrote:

Yes, in C++ you'll mostly use high level features like classes, templates and whatever else because these are the reason C++ was created in the first place.WitherMite wrote:

I see your point, but no. I don't think C is the be all end all of programming language. It is very powerful as a language and in the right hands, it is perhaps the only language they would need, but to reach such a point would take a lot of time and effort. Don't get me wrong, I hate how most of programming nowadays seems to be web dev (I repeat seems), but C isn't the solution we're looking for, in my opinion.Karmine wrote:

Yeah I was exaggerating, C++ and python are definitely useful, languages for specific applications too (Prolog, R...), but C would be better than most languages for most applications imo.Winnyace wrote:

The main reason a lot of people don't like it is because they only know high level languages but don't understand how any of it works. That's why I don't like high level languages, you write stuff but you'd have to spend hours reading docs (if there's any) to understand the underlying mechanism if you want to make sure you're doing things right. I know it's the whole point but when you think about it, designing a language with the goal that devs don't understand the code they write is not a good idea. Python works well with that idea because it's designed to be used by non devs to make stuff quickly and easily, so hiding all the complexity makes sense. C++ is a good balance between high level features and the more hands-on approach of C.
On the contrary the thing I like about C is that you more or less have to understand what you're doing if you want to make something that works, which sort of forces you to write better code and helps you get better with time.
Out of curiosity, what's your stance on Rust? From my limited experience with it, it attempts to be C, but it hand holds you through the entire process with helpful warning and errors to make you, the developer, code within the documentation's guidelines.Karmine wrote:

I've heard things about it but never tried and never really looked into it.Winnyace wrote:

I like the idea of basically making better/safer C but no idea how good it is in practice.
