What are all of the programming languages that everyone knows? I know TI-86 BASIC, a bit of Z80asm, some HTML (I learning), javascript, and mlc, which aI am learning  (which technically isn't a language but...whatever) |

Python. I'd say it's one of the best structured and most flexible language available. If you have never used it, I sudgest you try it out. www.python.orgwww.pygame.orgIf you want to see some examples of what the code looks like, visit my site and click the 'source' links under the Python programs. |

I code in TI-BASIC (LOL  ), TIGGC C, Liberty BASIC, HTML, and JavaScript. |

Hmm...Python. Seems good.

First of all, HTML is not a programming language. That aside, I know HTML, JavaScript, Java, Flash ActionScript (very similar to js), C, C++, BASIC, z80 asm, and some Perl.

HTML is sort of like...mlc. Not technically a language, but acts a lot like one. Just how goto/Lbl acts as a loop, but isn't technically one. Well, sort of. Whatever...

HTML may not be a language, but it is a powerful tool.

HTML is a language, it just isn't a programming language. If you code your website in HTML, you arent doing any programming of any sort.

So when I am making a web page or something in HTML, I'm just using a tool, and it isn't considered programming, right? Then what is it considered? Simply "building" or "constructing" or "making"lol?

technically when you write a webpage with html, you are doing exactly the same thing as when you type an essay in English class. HTML (Hyper Text Markup Language) is simply a language that, using what is known as a web browser, or other utility, turns a document into something that looks different. So an HTML document is just a bunch of writing, but the special program (your web browser, usually) can read the document and look for the tags, and use those to display the document in interesting ways, rather than embed the formatting directly like in a word document, where you type in different size fonts and colors and thats what you see. Although to be fair, Word documents actually do work like HTML in that the document itself has all of the formatting embedded in it, and is processed and displayed by the program, but the difference is that .doc is a proprietary and secret format owned by Microsoft specifically for this purpose and you can't write in Word format without Word. I'm getting off topic...

OK. ;D How long have you been programming each language? Also, how long have you been using HTML? I've been programming in TI-86 BASIC for about a year, when I got my TI-86. I've been programing in Z80 asm...well, for about a couple months (about 7 or 8 months after I got my TI-86). I've been using HTML for about a 1 or 2 months. javascript...well, I know a some stuff about it ;D I also progrmmed in at least one other unimportant language for a while, although I don't any more. I don't even know it's name any more. Also, I think that it would be c  8-)l with a section where you could submit programs and people could download them. Maybe someone could make it or we could get this site hosted by cjb.net. Oh, and I forgot about mlc (which technically isn't a language...). I've been using mlc for about a couple weeks. Then there is Python...which I might start using... cobal is another story ... |

HTML - 1 year
JavaScript - 6 months - 1 year, depending
Java - 3 1/2 years I think
Flash - 1 year, but I havent done much in about 9 months
C - 1 1/2 years
C++ - 1 year
BASIC - 5 years
z80 asm - 1 year
Perl - 1 month

Python, JavaScript, and 83x Basic for about a year each. Perl is cool, but it's syntax is pretty tricky. Ask Ben, though, because he's pretty good at it, and I may not have any idea of what I'm talking about.  |

perl is just wierd. I barely know anything. It's kind of like C, but has more complicated and simpler syntax at the same time. If you really know what you are doing though, you could write a Perl program in 5-10 lines or less that is equivalent to what would take 100 or more lines in C. It can get really messy:
#!/usr/bin/perl -w
use strict;
$_='ev
al("seek\040D
ATA,0, 0;");foreach(1..2)
{<DATA>;}my @camel1hump;my$camel;
my$Camel ;while( <DATA>){$_=sprintf("%-6
9s",$_);my@dromedary 1=split(//);if(defined($
_=<DATA>)){@camel1hum p=split(//);}while(@dromeda
ry1){my$camel1hump=0 ;my$CAMEL=3;if(defined($_=shif
t(@dromedary1 ))&&/\S/){$camel1hump+=1<<$CAMEL;}
$CAMEL--;if(d efined($_=shift(@dromedary1))&&/\S/){
$camel1hump+=1 <<$CAMEL;}$CAMEL--;if(defined($_=shift(

That's some perl. The top part (single camel) is the program, the bottom is the output when you run it. well, the spaces all get truncated. d**n. go here: www.thinkgeek.com/tshirts/coder/321a/detail/ |

EASY.
ASM is the hardest language to learn, and JavaScript is fairly easy.
It's going to be a big step, though. There's new syntax, and you won't be using registers or any of that sort of stuff.
I'd recommend you learn Python, first. You can make fairly interactive programs when you first start, and the syntax is easier to read.
