I am wondering what other languages people mostly program in besides Lua? I have done so many, it's ridiculous.

I personally program Php for work, I've done Asp.NET, VB.NET, C#, A tiny bit of C++, Java, Lua (Obviously), and Javascript. I do HTML though it is not really a programming language.

Also,
What is your experience with SQL databases such as MySQL?

Have you worked on websites and use MySQL?

Lua, C++, Javascript, Bash, Basic, PHP
But I'm not so good with them all .-.
Also I'm pretty sure that there's almost an exact same topic as this in general.. I think it was called something like 'What programming languages do you know?"
Man.. I gotta learn Java..

I really only ever program in Lua, MoonScript and JavaScript. Python and Ruby don't really "stick", especially with pygame's shitty Rect object in mind.

I'm learning C, but I haven't actually done anything useful with it.

I mostly do HTML, CSS, PHP and JS (and if it counts SQL) but I also end up doing a lot of stuff with Shell Scripts and Perl. I'm currently learning Lua and C, although I already use C for some embedded stuff but I don't know any beyond that (for instance I don't know anything about threading in C or parallel processes as both are impossible in the embedded environment.)

I also do ST and BBC Basic but haven't done much in either for a long time.

All I know is Java, perl and a tiny bit of python and lua.

I learnt java in the modloader era of minecraft modding, so i want to learn forge to get back into modding. Perl.... I can't remember what I learnt it for, I think it was for a school project, but haven't used it since so my knowledge is being depreciated in my brain slowly :/ . Python and lua....I've wanted to get into both for a long time, but I only bothered to learn the *bear(:D)* necessities to get by with what I've want to do it both; In time maybe, but too busy to learn new things :(

I love threads like this. You never know about what people can do until you read it.

I started programming back in 1982 with the Vic-20 BASIC. I hated peeks and poke back then.. uhgg. lol

Now I wish I had them back, it was sooo much easier to write with.

Anyhow, I know the following languages fluently : ASM, C, C# 2.x - 4.x, PowerBasic, DarkBasic Pro, GWBASIC, QuickBASIC, Java / JS, Lua / CCLua, PHP, HTML / HTML5, CSS / CSS3, LSL ( I tought Classes on this scripting Language ), and last but not least, GLBasic.
I know C++ and Python, but not so fluently.
Graphic Libraries I know fluently : ( My favorite graphic library ) OpenGL ( Any Version ) and the Windows GDI
Graphic Libraries I know enough to be dangerous with : DirectX 7 through DirectX 9

Someday I hope to get some sort of game out there. But meh.. who has time now days. lol

I can program in C, Avr-C, Java (Bukkit Plugins, Forge Mods, Android Apps and "normal" Java), PHP, HTML, Basic and Lua (mainly CCLua), Shell-Script and I have basic knowledge in Python, JS and Pic-Asm.
I'm not perfect in any of these languages but in Java & C I am pretty close to :D

Currently learning Objective-C for iPhone-Apps (hate the different Syntax compared to Java & C...).

I mostly learn from trying to understand code-snippets others wrote.
I don't like learning from the documentation of something...

I use Java mainly, but I've also been dabbling in C# and C++ recently. Some sort of obsession with compiling.
Anyways, I also use Python, Lua (my first language), Javascript, and PHP.
I am semi-capable in batch.
If you showed me any Perl code, I'd spend an hour trying to figure it out.
Ditto with C and *shudders* ASM.

Heh, I would if I had a need to. I've never come across anything that remotely required anything that low-level, or in Perl's case, anything... just like Perl.

C, C++ (not so good at that one), Java, JavaScript, Lua, Bash, PHP, ASM, and my favorite: Objective C. I know there's others but that's all I can think of.

I wish more people realized the power that is Objective C. They take one glance at the weird method calling syntax and get instantly turned off. But the fact of the matter is that Objective C is the ideal Object Oriented Programming language. Now the controversy then is whether OOP is the right programming model compared to imperative or functional (reactive) programming.

I know its powerful but if you have learned Java & C or anything like that before the syntax is a bit hard to understand :D

Eh. If the worst thing about a language is how different its syntax is, it must be a pretty good language. Plus, I really like the syntax they use. It's more descriptive about method parameters. For example, creating a person object that requires a first name, last name, and date of birth:

Person *p = [Person personWithFirst: @"John" last: @"Doe" andDate: @"04/03/87"];

is much clearer about which parameters go where than:

Person p = new Person("John", "Doe", "04/03/87"); // I hope I got the order right!
