Just wondering what the best programming language to learn is and why? In your opinion?
What do they do?
What have you done with them?
Ivan

EDIT: Also what languages do you know and how long did they take to learn/master?

In general, the best (programming) language to learn is Javascript. You can use it as on the front-end (jQuery, MooTools, Prototype, ...) as - what is currently more important - backend (Node.js, Backbone, etc).

For IM - some PHP+MySQL with HTML+CSS.

I know PHP (knowledge of 7 years, needed to say I barely used it for the last 2 years) and Ruby On Rails (using it practically on daily basis for the last 4 years).

I would suggest you to Learn HTML and CSS. They are useful to edit the website and themes. I am using wordpress and it is easy for beginners to use, many helpful videos in youtube. There are also many wordpress plugins that can help you to customise the site without coding.

None of those are programming languages.

I tried my luck with C++ a decade ago. It was fun for a while but then I discovered gaming.

Jesus, people around here. If your new go with python, it's a dead easy language (scripting, not programming). If you like challenges go with C first before C++ since it has simpler syntax, C is a programming language unlike python.


Maybe I should share this, I learned programming thru Arduino, I always wabted to build my own RC plane. You should check it out, tutorials on youtube is very helpful for newbies in coding.

I would say "woman" because then you can teach the rest of us. I've been with my wife 12 years and I still don't understand her lol

As some other user already mentioned, CSS and HTML are not even programming languages
Still it's good to know them
But if you want to get into programming I would go with Python
Once you are familiar with Python diving into languages like Go or C++ is going to be a lot easier
With Python you are able to build some awesome applications without having to write super complicated code

PHP is extremely old, the best nowadays would be either Python, Ruby, Node. You can choose either of those.
