Which Language Should I learn

Discussion in 'Programming' started by vit1008, Oct 5, 2012.

    I've been doing database programming for years and a little iOS stuff, but I'd like to get back into web programming. I'm at a bit of a loss as to what the best language is to learn in the current environment. I want to add a new marketable programming skill to my current set. I was thinking about PHP, but are there any other languages I should consider? :confused:

    HTML, CSS, and Javacript are all the languages needed to be an HTML 5 developer. Python is also a great language to know for web programming. You can also easily learn these languages at codecademy . com. It's a great interactive site for learning web development. Hope this helps.

    PHP must be your first choice ,then you can choose c#,
    both two have more feature and security.

    It really depends on what you are wanting to do.

    For really simple scripts, PHP is the easiest to deploy and get going quickly. If you are wanting to reuse scripts, there are a lot of open source/commercial PHP scripts that you could use.

    If you are wanting to develop complex web apps from scratch I would look into PHP frameworks such as zend/symfony/codeigniter, ruby on rails or django.

    Best way to decide on a technology is to set aside a few days and build a simple project in each so you get used to the libraries available and documentation.

    I suggest you to go for C++ if you haven't already. And these days, Java,Python and Rubi are getting quite popular so you can check them too.

    HTML and CSS are what's seen by the user, so learn them. Javascript is what runs in the browser, so if you want any code running in the browser, learn that. (That's NOT Java. Java and Javascript are two totally different languages.)

    PHP runs on the server. You'll need that, or some other server-side language, for accessing a database, accessing files on the server, sending an email, etc.

    I think PHP and HTML.PHP and HTML both are important for web site. PHP is main language which you require in order to code your website. And For Design you can use HTML, DHTML/CSS. These are best language for web design and development.
