Which programming languages do you know?
I only know some Java and Visual Basic 6.0

Sure, I've also tried a little HTML, but only little... then I got bored

HTML is not a programming language .

Java, Visual C++ / C++ / C, Visual Basic / Basic, Javascript, and thats about it.

For production purposes I've mainly used C/C++ and Fortran. I know a little in Pascal, Java, Basic and alike, but these languages are rather toys for students . I've programmed in various assembler languages too, including Z80, 65xx series and of course x86 (tasm32, masm, gas).

HTML is a language. It's just not a programming language. It is a document describing language. It it were a programming language, RTF and PS were one too.

Java / Vsual Basic (and VBA) / C++

Most of the time I use VB and Java (some Programming Projects and for Study-Purposes)

So what does that make XML and ASP?

also, I don't think anybody writes .rtf files from scratch.

Languages dedicated to transport, represent and visualize informations, are document describing languages. There are no computers running HTML "programs". There are only browsers showing their content. Since they are documents (data) and not programs (algorithms).

Oh, and about rtf, well, nobody writes it from the scratch, but the same is true for HTML as well. 99% of the HTML-"programmers" I know also use Frontpage and alike. I can write HTML from the scratch too, but I don't think it's "programming". It's more like writing and formatting text/graphics.

In the order I "acquired" them:
GW-BASIC (as a kid, never was any good at it)
(um... Civ2 events language! )
(HTML, JavaScript)
Prolog (I was a master at this, but it's been awhile now)
C (I was OK, don't know if I still am)
Visual Basic (easy peasy )
Lisp (only had one course in it, haven't used it since)
Perl (still working on it)

Fluent at Perl and PHP. I do know C and C++ in theory, but not really in practise. Been intending to learn Lisp, Python and Java for a long time. I can also read but not really write shellscripts. Fortunately most languages with a curly-braces syntax (Perl, PHP, C, C++, Java, ECMAScript, etc.) are similar enough that a passing knowledge of one or two of them makes it easy to understand the rest...

Oh, and if I was willing to admit it, I'd say that I also know BASIC (whatever dialect QBASIC officially used) .

You know, from reading this thread one gets the idea that every single Apolytoner is a programmer ...

APL, assembly languages (80x86, 68x00, 6502, 6809), Basic (inc. VB), C, Cobol, Fortran, Icon, Java, JavaScript, Oberon, Pascal (inc. Delphi), Perl, Prolog, Snobol, SQL.

I used to know these programming languages at one point or another, but I probably don't remember of of the details now.

I can write programs for any language, generally. I've had more experience in C++ and Java, but I've had at least some experience in just about everything. If needed, I could adapt to use any language in a short time.

"No one else uses SAP."

My mate's an SAP contractor...well, until he decided to play the stock markets for a job...and now he's going back contracting. Can't think why...

At Poly I was taught:
Pascal, Ada, Lisp, some Assembler of some shape form or size, Cobol (boy, THAT was useful)...

In real life:
Ada (defence work), some proprietary thingamajig, C++, VB, Oracle's excuse for a language (PL-SQL), Java.

...and this is a rather dull thread...

Hm... SQL probably is complex enough to be called as hard as a programming language in some cases, but I don't know enough to write those...

Anyway, I'm at page 96 of http://www-2.cs.cmu.edu/~dst/LispBook/book.pdf and while it has made sense this far I hope the book will soon tell how to make Lisp useful...
