Some Java, but I prefer Python.

i've tried python, and it is much easier, but at some point i look down upon it for being an interpreter.

I'm a Java man.
But I've heard python is great. any recommendations?

I like php.

C++ and C# are my most proficient ones
I've also used Java, php, vb and asp professionally

C# is my favorite.

I like basic

that would be Microsoft's c++ right?

damn goto statements.
almost gave me a heart attack, or worse. ;)

FORTRAN

jk lol

perl is my favorite/strongest, but I can tango in C and, to some extent, Java.

That said, perl is an interpreted language too, S.P.A.O. And C# is Microsoft's answer to objective C and Java. It's bytecode compiled, object oriented C with a garbage collector.

hmm. thanks.

i think they should enable goto statements in most languages. I mean it's no substitute for a loop, but a lot of times they'd work well with menus

i oppose the goto as a matter of principal.

I have a hard enough time with english

I'm a python man, but I'm trying to learn Perl and Lisp. Even in python, though, I'm still very much a novice.

Oh, and you use modules to avoid gotos. Every language has modules (or something like them), right? Scripts you load from other scripts?

C++ has been around since the 80's. There are compilers for every major platform, and M$ has one for Windows, but so do other vendors - Borland was a huge competitor for a long time, but I think M$ has all but taken them out due to the superiority of Visual Studio these days.

C# on the other hand, is all M$, and it is a great fusion between C++ and Java, taking the best of both languages and leaving out the bad.

Here's a warning to anyone tempted to use a goto to simplify their code:

not sure how that last line appeared - GameMaster probably put it there

I've only ever dabbled lightly in Java during high school. I haven't done anything since.

Have any of you thought of contributing to the site by programming when you have a little spare time?

Gamemaster is now my excuse for all stabs. "I didn't order those units into your territory! The gamemaster adjudicated them there!"

Chrispminis, I just posted this in another thread, but I'm poking around the source code looking for problems now. I'm probably far too ignorant, both in general and about PHP and MySQL, to actually get anything accomplished, though. I've been considering adding "bounced", "cut", and "removed" notices to the move history and sending that modification in, but I'm not sure if kestas would want it or if I could get it done well.

Yuck! BASIC is so 80's!

php is my poison. <3
If anyone is ever interested in learning more, a great forum that has helped me a ton is devnetwork.net

Chalks, you should download the site's source from sourceforge and contribute sometime. :D

In the meantime, I'll head over there.

to answer the question... i can sort of read java i learned it in compsci two years ago...

but my mind really doesn't work that way i barely passed haha.

system.out.println is about all i remember.. along with some other basics

ASP, SQL, FORTRAN, HTML, PHP, JSP, JAVA, C++, BASIC, and PASCAL. Oldies but goodies.

Damn, mwalton is hardcore. Asp? There are living people who know Asp? Not to mention Fortran and Pascal...All he needs is Assembly to round it out with a good old-fashioned mindfuck.

Speaking of mindfuck, anyone know Brainfuck? >_>

I know C/C++ decently and Java slightly. Mostly I've just been working on libraries (e.g., OpenGL, and starting SDL soon).

C, Lisp, Scheme, PostScript are what I am most confortable with, but I know enough to do something useful in Java, x86 assembler, Pascal, Python, C++, and maybe some other I'm forgetting. I want to learn thoroughly (soon) Python (although it's been three years since I'm telling myself this), Perl and Javascript.

All the popular ones and
Standard ML, Comal 80. But I work every day with c#
