Warriors!!

M pursuing my MCA now. I am really very confused with C,C++,Java. I just dont get the code. I want to get rid of these langs.

Any other valuable programming languages that are easy and have higher salaries like C,C++ and java??

What about UNIX?? Is it easy??? valuable?? have any scope??

Please list some good prog langs please.

Thanx!!

    all languages are syntax

    if you know one, then you know them all.
    This is the wrong place for your post. There IS a programing section.

    C is core. I understand what yoru saying. I am telling you
    as a programmer ... stop looking for the easy route.

    Like i said learn one and then you know all, it just comes down to syntax

    C will make you the most money. period.

      As a testament to that, I studied computer science for 3 years a lot of years ago and we were doing mostly C++.

      Years later, even though I couldn't write code in another language from scratch, I can read it, understand what's happening, and "frankenstein" code together from examples / guides / whatever.

      Once you understand the fundamentals of programming, any language can be picked up relatively quickly.

      Yep. "Programming" and "easy" don't mix. Even the languages that are considered the easiest (like VB) can get fairly complicated once you get past the "basics". Case in point... I have a VB.NET book that is 1,377 pages long... and it doesn't even cover everything!

      So don't believe for a second that there is a single (legit) programming language out there that will be "easy" to master, because it simply doesn't exist.

      There's a reason why competent programmers get paid well... it's damn hard work!

      As for what the "best" programming language is? "Best" is a very subjective word, of course, so if you asked 20 different programmers that question, you would likely get 20 different answers. Just depends on your preferences, and what your overall goals are.

      Regarding $$$... I think you can make good money with just about any decent programming language. If you work for yourself, then as long as you can write programs that will solve people's problems, the language you choose doesn't much matter. If you'd rather work for someone else, then it would probably be a good idea to stick to the more popular languages (at least at first), to increase your chances of getting hired.

    Wrong forum for these kind of questions...

    UNIX is an operating system, not a "language".

    A few points I want to make about your post.

    There is no one best language, each one is task specific, what your doing should dictate your choice of language.

    Learn to program, not a language. Learn the logic behind a program, focus more on that and less on the language itself.

    If C++ is too hard try a high level language like basic. You're not going to get rich with this, but it will provide the foundation to learn more.

    If your programming for money your in the wrong field. Sorry to be blunt, but programming is not easy and takes years of hard work. Those that do it truly love it, if your only in it for the money you'll burn out long before you see any return.

    Exactly as other Warriors have already posted... forget the languages for now...
    and focus on Programming concepts, the real skill to tackle the problems in a programmatical way.

    To master the programming concepts for a beginner what best language is than C/C++?

    When you have mastered the concepts, and know how to program..then you can learn syntax of any new language any day... it is never ending learning process...

    Do not try to skip the basics, it will save you lot of time and hassle in the long run.
    Good luck,
    Mohsin

    Visual basic is an easy language but it teaches you bad habits. I started with it and had a hard time letting go. Tho, my cousin uses Visual Basic in his job so I don't know if it's that bad. I am learning C# and I love it! It's a little easier than C but definitely at least as powerful.

    Try VB.NET. It is much easier to learn than C/C++ or C# and there is a market for it ...

    I highly recommend you learn Python. The basics are very easy to learn, unlike C, C++, and Java (though I don't think Java is all that hard, for most people it's a difficult first language). Python is much more expressive and clean than most languages, yet it is still strict enough to require good habits.

    While the basics of Python are easy to learn, it is a real programming language, with a rich set of advanced modules that can be used to accomplish anything. It is considered one of the "highest level" languages around.

    Wages for Python programmers are good, though you need to have a full set of other skills as well, such as understanding UNIX (Linux). Yes, this is an operating system, not a language, as previously mentioned, though in a way Bash is the programming language of UNIX.

    Once you understand Python, I highly encourage you to keep studying C, it will help you in your career and is ubiquitous in the industry, since it is the basis for so many operating systems and other languages (including the Python interpreter, which is written in C).

    If programming is too hard for you, maybe you should consider another career path. But you'll never know if you don't try...

    If you want to earn big, study COBOL. I heard you'll earn a lot if you're skilled in this programming language.

    visual basic, c#, visual c++, ruby. (if you don't have visual studio.net, you can get the express version for free. Or, if you have an .edu account, you can join microsoft dreamspark and get an awesome collection of development software 100% free).



    The key, is writing code again and again.

    PS: COBOL is cool, and still widely used by banks. (You can make good money knowing COBOL now adays because it's largely abandoned in the US universities but still widely utilized in financial sectors; so it's kind of a "niche" language).
