/prog/ - What language should I learn

Name: Anonymous 2009-01-29 23:21

Hey /prog/ I'm wondering what ENTERPRISE language to learn in order to get a job. I know C if that helps.

Fuck your enterprise, learn perl.

C#. it's the only ENTERPRISE language that reasonably supports functional programming.

Actually, Nemerle quite reasonably supports functional programming, and isn't terribly different from Seshup.

As do Javascript and XSLT. Half the internet runs on those.

I wasn't aware that XSLT was a functional language

Not completely so, particularly because functions aren't an assignable and passable data type, but it uses many of the same principles, i.e. the output is the result of various transformations of the input. However: http://fxsl.sourceforge.net/articles/FuncProg/Functional%20Programming.html

Nemerle isn't really enterprise, though.

OP here.

So Java is a safe bet?

Most certainly. It's a concentrated ball of design-by-commitee enterprise, and working with it will give you easy access to clusterfucks like SOAP and CORBA. You could be sitting in front of your workstation and programming in a suit as a salaryman in as little as five months time.

XSLT is touring complete. any touring complete language can emulate any other touring complete language.

Turing means nothing. BrainFuck is also Turing complete and no one written a server in it.

"Basically mod_bf is a brainfuck interpreter that interprets .bf files
on Apache webserver machines."
Thats a plugin, not a standalone server.

Shit, that prospect doesn't look very good.
Is there any way to get a job without having to wear a suit?

Academia, the pay isn't quite as good, but lots of vacation time and casual environment makes up for it.
