Programming skills

[therix]

So Python looks a bit like Lua.

HTML, CSS, tiny bit of PHP

Hello lemon-guy, welcome to Exilian.

[Ashanorath]

Lately i've started learning python but it's going kinda slow cause I'm concentrated on improving my blender skills so I almost never have time for python

[SaidaiSloth]

I know a slight bit of html, quite a bit of bbcode, and a incredibly low amount of stuff about python.

[Cuddly Khan]

I know extremely basic stuff with python, like raw_input and loops and basic stuff like that.

Python is a great language to learn the basics of programming with. It's simple enough that it can easily be understood by someone new to programming who just wants to learn the basics, and yet is still powerful enough for more complex programs (albeit a bit slow). For example, to print a string onto the console:

<dl><dt>Code: Python</dt><dd> </dd></dl><code>print("this is a string")
</code>

<dl><dt>Code: C++</dt><dd> </dd></dl><code>#include <iostream>
using namespace std;

int main()
    {
        cout << "this is a string";
        return 0;
    }
</code>

Alright, time to show off *cracks knuckles* (also I'm interested in boosting response to this thread: nice to see what people are learning/comfortable with).

Main Language: Java
Secondary Language: C#
Other known languages: Prolog, C, C++, Python, Ruby, HTML, CSS, JavaScript, Basic, Visual Studio languages.
Learning: PHP, Lua.

So my main language is what I use for my degree (and my dissertation), my secondary language is the one I use for games development in Unity, and the other languages are ones I've picked up along the way.

Impressive!

C# is what I supposedly learned in college but I couldn't tell you the first thing about it now.

They even taught us some COBOL.

[Lizard]

Thank you

And oh man, COBOL? That's hardcore.

[comrade_general]

Old skool. 8)

So, I guess I'll update my list...

"Main" languages: Python, C++
Also known: Java, Visual Basic, Some C#, Shell
Web: PHP (bleh), Javascript, HTML, CSS
Some vague knowledge: Lua, Ruby (all knowledge I have of this makes me want to burn it)

[Othko97]

Web: HTML, CSS, a tiny bit of JQuery
Main Languages: Python, Java
Also known: Visual Basic (6.0, because my computing teacher is unaware of anything past 1996)

Wow, so many programmers here. Are any of you interested in helping me out to merge two forum databases...? I've been looking for someone to do this for a few weeks, but I couldn't find anyone so far...

[BrokenIronSights]

Next to none!


Languages: Python
Web: HTML
Interested: C++

I'd like to start contributing to, well, something. I have the time, just not the skill set... YET! If not a project, then could you fine folks point me somewhere I could possibly pick up some skills in the "programming" department?

Thanks!
Jeff
