True. When you know a couple of languages you can easily adapt yourself to others.

[obiwankenobe]

Great to see a man look so fantastic in his age. We lost Ritchie, but we still have Stroustrup with us.

[tamamlanmamis]

He wasn't ranking them, he was saying them out of order.

[lafireteamplx]

Exactly, a true genius who knew how powerful Java is

[bucephalusstudios]

The most important skill is your ability to learn new languages/tools, not what you already know.

Can't agree more with Mr. Stroustrup.
C++ was my first language to learn - at that was hard, but gave me a great kickoff to understand how things actually work from your code in the IDE to bytecode.

Since then I learned:
C, Ruby, PHP (>= 7 it's not a mess anymore, trust me!), Javascript/Typescript, Python, Kotlin, Dart (in Flutter), and Go.
Had some Java in school, but I wouldn't count that, as it was just printing out some strings to the stdout. Prime numbers and basic stuff like that.

And that really helped and still helps me with dealing with my daily job as a developer and solution architect.
Never stop learning different technologies! Otherwise you can't decide what's the right tool for the job!

[hamzahaider]

being in the industry I can confirm that in order to thrive here you should be willing to learn at least three or more languages

[harrysbidos]

I really love C++. I persuaded my employer to start writing C++ extensions for our node.js project... Eventually, node.js ended up being the extension of our huge C++ codebase.

Personally, I think it's important to get used to different programming paradigms in order to yield the best of all in many languages. For example: C# has many features that support the functional paradigms. It also helps to know imperative and declarative programming.

[casperhansen]

I have not been using C++ for 30+ years, I mainly use C#, some Python, Typescript/Java

[kajetanl]

Yup getting familiar with a number of languages actually helps you with development of more flexible ways of coding thus learning how to do it in multiple ways. It also provides you bigger possibilities on job markets. On a regular basis I personally work with 4 languages at once. As this is a technological stack behind the project. And that was a key factor why the company I work with actually selected me during the recruitment process.

The hallmark of a professional is in their professions, not in their toolbox.

[lucasteo]

Im a junior dev, I totally agree with this, I always see people at my age defending their beloved language especially javascript / typrscript, and all they've experienced is only that. You don't really need to be proficient all of the listed language at all time, the concept that different language introduced is what important and is mostly a transferable knowledge.

I'm 24 and I started programming using CISC instruction with microprocessor 8051, then went to visual basic, c, c++, tried c# but feel disgusted by the language capital case convention, java, heck even matlab and haskell (wrote a small compiler with it), python for AI (bcs this I major in this), now bcs of work I also need kotlin and perl. It is easy if you just start learning it instead of considering what to learn.

[UteChewb]

The very good developers I knew would learn a language a year, just for the fun of it. Sure they forget them if they don't use it, but it's for fun and it expands their approach to problems. I use to do that but not these days. Retired, but you know, rust looks nice.

[DrMaxPlank]

I am a professional with over 20 years of experience in programming languages and computer science, and I must say that in the past, languages were learned (AI will completely change this) so that they could be used for various specific environments. No language can be used for everything and still be optimal. Additionally, many languages have an unnecessary number of features—a "billion" different features that almost no one uses. By the way, not mentioning the C language is like not mentioning the von Neumann architecture when discussing different computer system architectures.

[jimmyloyola]

He neglected to mention that mastering C++ will take you at least 30 years.

[tejas]

I would say
Python
C++
Go
JavaScript
Rust

And very importantly
Bash
PowerShell.

[Official-Fake]

I would personally replace Ruby with SQL since it's functionality is so unique.

[retr.]

Pascal, C#, basic analog programming with Assembly were my favourity I did quite a ruby and can't say it wasn't for good, ruby my best experiences, also done java but thats fr just C#

Much love from s Africa. I wish i met you when i came to San Marcos
