Script47 Posted July 29, 2013 Share Posted July 29, 2013 (edited) So programming languages would you say is the you know the best? Edited July 29, 2013 by Script47 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jan Kaufmann Posted July 29, 2013 Share Posted July 29, 2013 PHP for me, It was the first language i started learning years back, However I also voted for CSS due to putting in countless hours at making templates from CSS + HTML. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coly010 Posted July 29, 2013 Share Posted July 29, 2013 HTML was my first language, I picked it up easily enough, after that it was php, then css, then VB then Java then JQuery lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Djkanna Posted July 29, 2013 Share Posted July 29, 2013 (edited) I'm guess we're going with a very broad definition of a programming language here? As only Java and Javascript ( PHP highly debated upon, but I guess PHP too ) in this list are considered programming languages. HTML/HTML5 are the same thing. MySQLi isn't a language at all, and jQuery is just a Javascript framework. Edited July 29, 2013 by Djkanna Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry about that DJK, I just meant any strong language, and I never really knew about the framework stuff, just thought of names. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dayo Posted July 31, 2013 Share Posted July 31, 2013 If im honest im surprised that people think they have a stronger understanding of PHP then they do HTML. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Script47 Posted July 31, 2013 Author Share Posted July 31, 2013 If im honest im surprised that people think they have a stronger understanding of PHP then they do HTML. Probably because with PHP you can do more stuff, and people (I personally think) know they can do more with PHP rather than HTML so they jump in to PHP.

Dragon Blade Posted July 31, 2013 Share Posted July 31, 2013 PHP,Mysql. That's about it to be honest. And abit of JQuery. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bloodless2010 Posted November 18, 2013 Share Posted November 18, 2013 JQuery isn't a programming language, it's a Javascript library. MySQL is a database of SQL, SQL is a query language. HTML(5) is a markup language. Javascript is 1 word (Not Java Script) CSS is a style sheets, not a programming language. MySQLi is a MySQL extension (that 'improves' it; hence the i) - and is only used in PHP, still, not a programming language. The only TRUE programming language listed in that poll would be Java. I suggest changing the thread title.. Sorry, I just had to point this out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lucifer.iix Posted November 19, 2013 Share Posted November 19, 2013 PHP isn't a programming language it has a 'C' syntax, not a PHP syntax developed by them. And it's also horibble: function MyFunctor() { return function() { return "hello"; } } // <- Doesn't work. function MyFunctor() { $PHP_IS_HORRIBLE = function() { return "hello"; }; return $PHP_IS_HORRIBLE; } // <- this works. MyFunctor()(); <- This doesn't work... $PHP_IS_HORRIBLE = MyFunctor(); $PHP_IS_HORRIBLE(); // <- And this does ofcourse... PHP is just a TEXT PROCESSOR with a scripting language that must look like 'C' and now 'C++' syntax. Now this year it looks stable, but your old code will run until your hosting provider get's a update. Than you have to re-arange all your parameters. Who can remember the day that they changed the parameters of: explode($array, $delimiter) to explode($delimiter, $array).... And that wasn't the only time i had to re-arange params because the people of PHP tought it would be handy. With mysqli is exactly the same, you can't just: Replace all "mysql_" with "mysqli_", that would be just to easy. XML (HTML/CSS) is a MARKUP LANGUAGE. MySQL and MySQLi is a Provider/Driver for MySQL, not a programming language. It's just a API or Interface with your database. Even SQL is a QUERY language. And Quering isn't programming. Queriing is asking a question, not controlling the flow of a process. Java, ok you can call that a language. But don't forget to update ! Java Script, is just a scripting language that run's in a sandbox. It's comparable with PHP and also PHP's developers example language. JQuery is a library/Api from google or used by google for queriing the DOM (Document Object Model) better, than with the normal DOM implementation. Like getting al the elements from a class inside a small piece of html, so not the whole document for example. And it has some special ($) labda functionality for chaining of functions. JQuery isn't a language, but it's mutch more professional than all the things listed above. Good languages: Clojure, F#, C#, Delphi, Visual Basic (only VS2010 and above ofcourse), Phyton, Ruby on rails. What does a good programming language have. The same things we have in math, like types, sets, transformations and functions. @Dayo: No, not really. If you don't know the difference between programming and markup it's also difficult to awnser. - - - Updated - - - JQuery isn't a programming language, it's a Javascript library. MySQL is a database of SQL, SQL is a query language. HTML(5) is a markup language. Javascript is 1 word (Not Java Script) CSS is a style sheets, not a programming language. MySQLi is a MySQL extension (that 'improves' it; hence the i) - and is only used in PHP, still, not a programming language. The only TRUE programming language listed in that poll would be Java.

You *******, don´t touch my: "widely-used general-purpose scripting language" ;) Happy Hacking... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HazardBoy Posted May 16, 2014 Share Posted May 16, 2014 (edited) Programming language is a general term. This page should categorize and make everything clear: http://www.computerhope.com/jargon/p/proglang.htm Plus you can create your own programming language. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Non-English-based_programming_languages Edited May 16, 2014 by HazardBoy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
