Programming Languages

Post by christo »

If you're new to programming or you only know one or two languages, you may be curious about the world of all those "other programming languages" you hear about.

It might surprise you to learn how many there really are, and you might also be shocked to find out how easy it can become to learn a new one, once you have a few under your belt.

OR, you might just like pretty pictures:

My favourite quote about learning programming languages is this:

"A language which doesn't change the way you think isn't worth learning."
