    I'm a COBOL man myself.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 81,060 ✭✭✭✭biko


    Started on COBOL, JCL and other mainframe lingos.
    Now mainly scripts for tools.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,082 ✭✭✭Pygmalion


    C++ mainly, have done some PHP, Javascript and Python (more PHP than the others, but not a huge amount of that either, just a couple of simple sites out of boredom), but recently nothing but C++.

    Will probably (hopefully :P) be going to DCU next year (pending LC results) to study Computer Applications, so will probably be learning Java there.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,453 ✭✭✭showry


    All Powerbuilder & TSQL at the moment.


  • Hosted Moderators Posts: 7,486 ✭✭✭Red Alert


    C, Python with a smattering of FORTRAN.

    Ouch...and I thought I was a dinosaur maintaining Delphi code! You're obviously working for a bank.

    I work primarily with C# at the moment but in the past I've worked with various implementation of Visual Basic, PHP, Java and C++.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,157 ✭✭✭dazberry


    I'm stuck in a Delphi job - surprised to see other people are still using it.

    D.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 515 ✭✭✭NeverSayDie


    These days, pretty much all C# both for work and side projects. Previous to that, some C++ and the odd bit of VB6. Previous to that again, plenty of Perl.

    java
    php
    bit of vb :(


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 981 ✭✭✭fasty


    C++, C and C# in work with occasional C++/CLI for the slow kids at the back

    At home I pretty much stick to C++ for my own projects, being a videogame and PHP for some freelance webdev stuff.

    Haven't touched Java since college.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9 tja


    Predominantly Java. But the amount of RPGLE I'm writing is increasing weekly.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,911 ✭✭✭towel401

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,602 ✭✭✭Saint_Mel

    Learning VB.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,238 ✭✭✭techguy


    Started off using Qbasic..left it shortly after.

    Use Java and PHP at the moment. I'm tinkering with a bit of C throught the arduino.

    I'm loving PHP at the moment but I think C# is the next step unless I start something else next year in College!

    Isn't that a shell-scripting language?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,721 ✭✭✭E39MSport


    I hope so.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,468 ✭✭✭Evil Phil


    Strange the C# is listed under "Other .Net Languages".
