Re: Favourite Languages

PHP, MySQL, CSS, XHTML, ActionScript, FLASH!!!

That covers what I know, sorry, I did not feel like separating them into categories. I am interested in learning more about AJAX, and Coldfusion!

Re: Favourite Languages

Yeah, mostly because of the name. I am not really sure what it is or anything. A good friend of mine is a Cold Fusion developer so perhaps I should ask him what it is...haha.

Re: Favourite Languages

I really like using PHP as there's so much to learn. Try and write my sites using XHTML using CSS

Would really like to learn JavaScript just so I can help other people and definitely want to learn Ajax as I like the way you can do things without having to refresh the page.

Some other things I need to learn is Flash and Photoshop.

Programming languages I have used in the past few years are Pascal (which i hated), Visual Basic, and Java which is not so bad when yo get used to it

Re: Favourite Languages

Java is a big learning curve isn't it?
I'm halfway through c# which is completely OO.
So it might be easier for me now

Re: Favourite Languages

Java is OOP so if you use OOP in PHP it will make it easier to learn. I have to start learning OOP using PHP but one step at a time as there is a lot I don't know about PHP

Re: Favourite Languages

I always use OOP for PHP.
I find it so much neater.
But as OOP was added onto PHP, I find it lacks some features.
Also nesting is forbidden :/

Re: Favourite Languages

My over-favorite programming language is PHP because it's such a powerful language, but easy to use and implement.

I'm not sure whether I like C# or C++ more; C# is so user-friendly (but has no pointers), but with C++ you can do much more stuff (and you have pointers).

CSS is also kool because it looks so colorful in Notepad ++.

Re: Favourite Languages

hmmm, the easy explanation:
You can access the value stored in a variable two ways: using the variable name or using the address of the variable in memory. The second method you're using a "pointer" to the value stored in a variable. (And they did away with that in C# - gnurghhh.)

It's kind of an abstract concept, took me a while to grasp it, but very powerful once you've understood it.

Re: Favourite Languages

CSS!

I have yet to learn a programming language. I can make small edits to PHP, though.
