    In the order I "acquired" them:
    GW-BASIC (as a kid, never was any good at it)
    (um... Civ2 events language! )
    (HTML, JavaScript)
    Prolog (I was a master at this, but it's been awhile now)
    C (I was OK, don't know if I still am)
    Visual Basic (easy peasy )
    Lisp (only had one course in it, haven't used it since)
    Perl (still working on it)
    Civilization II: maps, guides, links, scenarios, patches and utilities (+ Civ2Tech and CivEngineer)

        Fluent at Perl and PHP. I do know C and C++ in theory, but not really in practise. Been intending to learn Lisp, Python and Java for a long time. I can also read but not really write shellscripts. Fortunately most languages with a curly-braces syntax (Perl, PHP, C, C++, Java, ECMAScript, etc.) are similar enough that a passing knowledge of one or two of them makes it easy to understand the rest...

        Oh, and if I was willing to admit it, I'd say that I also know BASIC (whatever dialect QBASIC officially used) .

        You know, from reading this thread one gets the idea that every single Apolytoner is a programmer ...

              APL, assembly languages (80x86, 68x00, 6502, 6809), Basic (inc. VB), C, Cobol, Fortran, Icon, Java, JavaScript, Oberon, Pascal (inc. Delphi), Perl, Prolog, Snobol, SQL.

              I used to know these programming languages at one point or another, but I probably don't remember of of the details now.

                  Yeah...


                  Well, almost every single Apolytoner

                    I can write programs for any language, generally. I've had more experience in C++ and Java, but I've had at least some experience in just about everything. If needed, I could adapt to use any language in a short time.

                      Space is big. You just won't believe how vastly, hugely, mind- bogglingly big it is. I mean, you may think it's a long way down the road to the chemist's, but that's just peanuts to space.

                        "No one else uses SAP."

                        My mate's an SAP contractor...well, until he decided to play the stock markets for a job...and now he's going back contracting. Can't think why...

                        At Poly I was taught:
                        Pascal, Ada, Lisp, some Assembler of some shape form or size, Cobol (boy, THAT was useful)...

                        In real life:
                        Ada (defence work), some proprietary thingamajig, C++, VB, Oracle's excuse for a language (PL-SQL), Java.

                        ...and this is a rather dull thread...

                          I have a tad of knowledge in Turbo Pascal, and have spent some time when I was little programming in Basic and Logo

                              Is that counted as programming language also?

                              Then count me in for that one too... (And that'll be "some SQL" also )

                                Hm... SQL probably is complex enough to be called as hard as a programming language in some cases, but I don't know enough to write those...

                                Anyway, I'm at page 96 of http://www-2.cs.cmu.edu/~dst/LispBook/book.pdf and while it has made sense this far I hope the book will soon tell how to make Lisp useful...
