Python would be the most useful one to learn, no?

Of that list C++, SQL, and C# are the most useful. Probably in that order too. IOS is an OS not sure why it's on there when apps for IOS are written in C# (Mono)for cross-compiler capability.

You shouldn't diss javascript. There are mature front and back technos (vue.js and node.js) that are light-weight and cloud-oriented enough to be promising. Don't let pajeet own the place with his shitty code. Plus, it's easy to learn and frameworks help greatly to not mess your code around.

Like another anon said, if you want big money and if you're at ease with analyzing and reporting from gigantic loads of raw data, learn. fucking. SQL. Getting an Oracle certification is the high road. SQL and datamining are the best way to get a more and more comfortable income while working less and less.

C, C++ and Assembly can be very profitable too beacause of the lack of qualified people, but the learning curve is steep and it depends on the demand where you live or want to work.

As an IT engineer myself, Python get honourable mention. It's a beautiful language with much flexibility but I wouldn't go all in except if there's much demand in your area.

Learning other languages may be useful, but starting with any of them would be a bad idea IMO - you'll learn much more rapidly if you have a solid basis and trained your computational logic in javascript for example.

Oh, and if you can, avoid fucking Java. It's easy to learn and quick to piss code with, and like with any other language you can execute beautifully created projects with nice and life-saving technos, but its workforce is so much nigger-ridden today that you'll throw yourself out the window before long.

Godspeed, anon.

Vuejs is actually enjoyable to use. It's something like react+angular.

I'm a bit suspicious that the creator is a chink and they highly prioritize translating the docs into chink. From the outside looking in it seems like it might be better than React, though.

Python is popular because it's very flexible language, I know Ctards will want to skin me alive,but Python is very much modern C for retards. If you don't want to meddle too much in HOW something works, Python is for you, it offers solutions optimized by people better at C than you will be in 10 years.

C++ is meme tier at this point, if you want good well paid job it doesn't really matter what main web language you pick, but how fast can you master it. Difference in salary between junior and senior is 3-7x. Java is universally hated because if you're gonna work with java, you're going to work with pajeets and that's just fucking nightmare,but if you're going to master it you will have comfy job.

SQL is not worth studying on it's own, working with SQL usually means working with some back end language like java,C#,python or something like that

Also if I could chose profession again I'd never go into IT

In my experience, there are far less roles available for C programmers. But far less people available for the roles, so it balances out. Young people mostly run away screaming from C so Gen-Xers end up doing that work.

Thanks guys, very informative!

>>12727565

Well I figure there are enough codemonkeys and there will be even more in the future so why not take a shot at the Aryan-tier stuff. I'll check out C.

programming pro here, listen to these anons:

>>12727548

this anon speaks truth

>>12727559

this anon is also correct, but I'm not sure you got what he was saying about the >Aryan-tier stuff

this was the important part:

the math is the hard part. The programming language is just a tool for making the computer do math.

Can you read and understand academic papers on encryption, or simulations or whatever? Because that would be the minimum level required for the type of thing he's talking about. If not, and you still want to into programming (and be employed as a programmer), I'd look at what the most in-demand language is for the level of education and qualifications you expect have.

So let me reiterate what some others have been saying: the language itself is not as important as your ability to understand the problems you are trying to solve.

Learning a language is a good short-term / mid-term strategy. But remember there is nothing more depraved and sad then Le 51 y/o Programmer still futzing about his 'red stapler' in the corner.

At some point every smart developer works out transition plan to slowly migrate into upper management.

Best bang for the buck is SQL. Become a certified MS or Oracle DB engineer. Its the most accessible language for non-nerds and provides biggest set of marketable skills (business analyst, report writing, etc)

Thanks! What if I'm more scientific oriented than economics though (so more like the engineering direction)? Would that be C or C++ right?

Besides making me a melon sized balls having Chad, would knowing C also potentially make me a more useful asset on the job market than say, Python?

The future is Bots and Data Science.. both of these primarily rely on Python and R. Python can do almost anything; and it’s very easy to learn. There is also a great community and catalog of tools.

Python will be the language of the Revolution.

Only electrical engineers should learn C as a first programming language. People telling you to learn C are just /g/ memeing. Idiots complain that Python is too easy, but it is an ideal learning language. It has simple syntax, a huge and well documented standard library (including a nice enough GUI framework), and runs equally well on Windows, Mac, Linux, and BSD machines. As an added bonus, there are lots of companies that use Python and hire Python programmers. You'll get more gratification with less frustration learning Python than C, and that's critical for someone who's just learning. Asking a total newbie to learn C first is just short of setting them up for failure. Lots of wizards learned using BASIC; think of Python as 21st century BASIC.

If you need to learn C for a specific purpose such as writing microcontroller code or an operating system or whatever, learn it then. Don't worry about pointers and malloc and undefined behavior and nasal demons unless you absolutely have to.

Python is designed to be easy to learn. If you know C, you can figure out Python in an afternoon.
