What programming/scripting languages do you know?

Oooh, so now I get to group them!

-- human languages --
Comprehensible:
English
French
Esperanto

Incomprehensible:
FFF00 (this is a real human language, based off of Reverse Polish logic. Let's just say it has word endings for connecting other words together. And it only exists in written form; spoken form is purely tonal.)

-- programming languages --

Group 1: Novelty
boyfriend

Group 2: Reverse Polish logic / Forth languages
User Reverse Polish LISP
System Reverse Polish LISP
Forth

Group 3: Scheme
Scheme

Group 4: The C-like languages (not picking C for any special reason)
C++
Java
Perl
PHP
BASIC
C#

Group 5: Crappy BASIC-ish languages that are just not fun
TI-83-Basic
TI-89-Basic
"HP-BASIC"

Group 5a: Better calculator languages
TI-85/86-Basic

-- markup languages --

Group 6: Markup Languages that had a chance to be good
HTML 2
HTML 3

Group 7a: Good markup languages (XML)
DocBook
XHTML 2

Group 7b: not XML-based
UTD

Group 7: Markup Languages w/ joke semantics
HTML 3.2
HTML 4.01
XHTML 1.0
XHTML 1.1 (an exercise in futility)

So, I would put c,c++,java,js,php AND basic,vb,vbs AND perl,pascal into one group. It's not little things about syntax that matter; all those languages have functions and such working the same way. After all, C# is directly mappable into one of the versions of Visual Basic. (VB .NET I guess.) I suppose you could subgroup them into categories, such as object oriented vs. non, etc. But syntax ancestry only matters on a superficial level.

I am ok with C but not really good, C++ has frightened me a bit so i didnt read and wrote too much in it, i am quite good at perl and good in php (but my MySQL and Postgre knowledge isnt good).

My favorite programming language is ruby though, i like the philosophy behind it. But, mind you, i am really bad at OOP, and without it you are at least one stage below the next ... stage, especially if you work on projects using/extending classes and libs. :/

PHP is very fine though, much simpler than C++ IMHO and you can proceed learning at a rather fast pace. Perl is also great, but i found the advanced parts a bit tricky (ie hard to learn for me)


HTML, XML, CSS is much simpler IMO

XML is very good btw...

Im working on

C++ (decent... took a 50 hour course from one of the EverQuest programmers)

Java Script (... I can tweak um to my will but that about all)

VB (I dont really like it but I can use it very little bit)

HTML (I am pretty skilled with HTML and run my Schools Website)

Dont mind the frontpage I dont like it at all but I didnt make that the administrator thought he would take care of that one... but the rest of the setup is done by me. Also the pics that are missing and stuff for the time... people done give me anything LOL I cant work without files for some reason they think we can write everything into existence.

Well isn't this a nerdy bunch? *sigh* Yes, I too am a nerd.

There are pages and pages of very impressive programmers here, I'll add my meager list to the masses.

Languages in the spotlight:
Java (JSP, Servlets & Applets, Beans, etc)
ColdFusion MX
Actionscript (if it counts seperately from javascript)
VB .NET (I say this but I lie - I only know VB6)
XML
SQL
C/C++
Languages everybody should know:
HTML
Javascript
Languages I wish I could forget:
DELPHI
COBOL
BASIC (MS and calc versions)
ASM (oh god the nightmares are flooding back)
And the apex of all languages:
LOGO (ahh the memories)

I am pretty good with C.

Other languages I've used in the past:
- C++ (used to be better, till i forgot inheritence/polymorphism)
- Qbasic (crappy, haven't used it in years.)
- x86 Assembly (Know little, teacher was crap...have to retake the course)

Other scripting languages I know
- HTML (I know a bit of the language, but always forgot about how to use certain tags)
- Kornshell (used to be pretty good about a year ago...now only intermediate)
- C shell (was taught this in the same class as the Kornshell...although not as well as Kornshell)
