 |
|
| I am hoping to brush up on my programming. It's been awhile, but what do you think are the top programming languages in demand today? I am especially interested if anyone thinks there is a different need in Korea compared to the US. |

It REALLY depends on what you want to do. Different languages have different purposes. this would be my top 5:
I'd say:
C Sharp
Java
VB (You'll run into VB everywhere.)
Perl
PHP
Take a C Sharp or Java course. Once you learn 1 programming language well, the others kind of fall into place. If you learn C Sharp, then Java should be pretty easy.
VB you could probably learn by yourself. |

Web based you should learn:
Javascript (not the same as Java)
AJAX
Python
PHP |

| Thanks for all the responses. Now the hard part: can you recommend three books on Java, C#, and asp.net? |

Css also belongs there even though it might not technically be a programming language, but it often works hand in hand with php on advanced websites. |

C, C++, Java, Assembler
Once you know those, you can easily learn almost any other programming language known to man. |
