discuss Programming Languages

[Yugi]

Do you know any? Do you currently actively use any? What kind of projects do you like to do?

I learned programming languages c, c++ long back but now I forget.

I started with programming when I was 16, I believe. I was fascinated by hackers at the time and internet was much better place to learn those stuff back then. Forums for such stuff were more popular and now only a vague memory. I started with Visual Basic, then checked out some C, C++ , php. I am not counting html,css because they are not programming languages.
Right now, I know Python.

I am not a programmer, but I like to know how different codes work. I want to get started by working on small projects like a website. I understand that everybody likes to build something from the ground up and that's what I want to do too.

I know how to write php code and build basic pages and execute basic functions etc. I'm very definitely a "beginner" with programming. I had a bit of experience as a teenager, when everything seemed to come naturally to me... coming back to things 10 years on has definitely been a huge learning curve and I've made an awful lot of really, really basic mistakes that I would've laughed at myself for making 10 years ago. That being said, it is really enjoyable to be able to "make" something yourself and see the results of your efforts.

I can't include HTML and CSS, so I only know JavaScript. But, I mostly use JavaScript alongside jQuery.

JavaScript is a great language of choice, and using it with jQuery will only make development that much easier. Are you aware of any other javascript libraries or frameworks like react, Angular or do you get most of your requirements fulfilled using jquery?

I understand a great deal of many programming languages and how they work, enough so to eventually create a working product. However, it would just take too much of my time with trial and error to get something just right.

I made a PHP application not so long ago using my knowledge of PHP and by using PHP.net to search for the functions I knew, but it turns out a lot of them were depreciated for new functions. So, I had to learn the new functions in order to make it work. That said, it still wasn't programmed well. I ran the code through ChatGPT to make it efficient for PHP 8.3 and it took it down to about 1/2 the code and the speed at which it could run went from 0.2 seconds to execute down to 0.003-0.004 seconds.

I learned a little bit of C and C++ some ten years ago. I found it quite too difficult and I had to quit. I am seeing how I can learn python now because it has many applications.

I took some coding classes in the 2000s (C++, C #, Visual Basic.net) and made good grades, aside from a C in C++, but since then, I haven't really messed with coding (aside from a Python class around 2015) and have forgotten most of it.

I have also taken time to dabble into programming but the thing is I'm still at the learning stage trying to catch up with some videos on some free coding platforms. So far so good, I'm enjoying it.
