After having me yap here for ages beyond count about languages other than those "officially" supported, which generates the most interest for you? Which are you most likely to spend some time learning? |

My plan of action right now is....finish off with Turing, Ruby, Java, C++ wtd, i know you'll say leave out Java, but it's what they do in Grade 11 compsci, so what can i do. |

I vote for whatever i need to learn to pass my classes. Other then that I think i'll stick to C++ and Pascal, php for the web, and maybe a little java if i really need to. |

I'll probably learn Python and Ruby, along with C and C++. I'll also work a bit on java, but really leave that till next year. What's kind of funny is that my school has turing for grade 10 AND 11 compsci, which sucks, really. I don't like turing ![]() ~Bob |

And those are all basically imperative languages. |

Haskell, just because WTD's so convincing ![]() Of course, I'm still far far from knowing as much Ruby as I'd like. ![]() |

Although I'm concentrating on finishing up c++/java, I might finish VB (again) starting the next school year. I never liked VB, I did some things in it back when I was 6/7 when it didn't make compleat sense, then again when I was 11/12 when I had a good understanding of it, and it looks like I'm headed into it again now when I'm 17. |

A note: "Javascript" has no relation at all to Java, save that Netscape wanted a flashy name that would confuse people into believing the two were related so they could piggyback on the Java PR blitz.

Also should note I'm learning x86 assembly on GNU/Linux. |

Post subject: | |
Wow. Good luck with that. x86 assembly is some pretty nasty stuff, and there are far more academic resources for that which focus on Windows. |

It's called "The Art of Computer Programming" or something like that... it's an assembly book that focuses on x86 on Debian. Apparently it's one of the more enlightening books out there. If I had time, I wouldn't mind reading that myself ![]() |
