I went for a programming course once but I failed miserably and since then I stick with what I can.
No, i dont program. I know the basics, but never developed any liking for the activity.
Yes... you could say i know some programming languages, mostly learned them because I needed them.
Started with website building at middle school with HTML4 + CSS + ASP3.0 + SQL/ADO/MS Access DB.... Built some sites for my younger brother's MOH:AA clans :)
Went on to learn C and C++ at my high school, finished the course with a neat little project of a working casino.... also took a VB6 at the same school and finished with a working program to replicate the incident report and management system of our electric company.
Built some Excel / Access VBA applications later on while at the army.
Debugged some PHP code while managing a forum.
Now I just use the Windows Command system and VBS to make my job easier whilst not having any real programming tools available.
My last big project was during work, where I created a VBS 500-1000 layer (randomized - security by obscurity) encryption tool for encrypting my work VBS files, which also allows me to add external files which are added to the encrypted VBS file as HEX code.
Currently contemplating going for an MCSD certificate.....
java
I would like to learn swift
Programmed in Turbo Pascal back in The Day...And Then a little in Java...:D
learning java + c++
started out as a javascript dev, added php and ruby to the mix while the w3c and the dom had to have an episode of intervention. have been using java and the processing.org framework/p5js a lot lately, hopefully soon will add the openframeworks /cpp stuff into that and am very interested in golang and rust and nodejs. Have spent a rather absurd amount of time researching and testing docker based seedboxes and getting my bash-fu up to snuff lately as well.
Once you learn one the others are pretty easy to pickup. Key is practice... can't stress that enough. And more than just homeworks, start a little side project for yourself
seems like there's a lot of programmers here :) am a programmer as well and like everyone says, once you know one language, you know them all.
