I want to learn a new programming language. Any suggestions?

Assembly!

Rust

@24th-Dragon You were quicker than me, good job!
I second Rust tho!

html

Go

@24th-Dragon @Sumafu
Time for my trusty meme, I guess.

Try to have a wide perspective:
- if you are working with dynamic languages, try to check some static typing ones and vice versa.
- if you don't know functional programming, try to discover it.

@metamourge did you say tRUSTy meme

Fortran

Shakespeare

@EaZyCode
You should really GO away.

I'm just going to leave this here

In b4 anyone suggests an esoteric programming language

If you don't know a purely functional language I recommend that you learn one (e.g. Haskell).

C/C++

Golang if you're familiar with C/C++
Otherwise, C/C++

@bigOHNOtation too late, @2erXre5 already suggested one

Also, here https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/...

Just pick one you like

@Krokoklemme what do you mean? I use Shakespeare everyday on my front end web apps ;)

COBOL

@devTea
Get back to your time-machine

@devTea why not CobolScript? Bring your legacy application to the web!

I'm totally not biased or anything but Python is pretty cool

@Python yOu’Re BiAsEdDd

erlang/elixir/rust/some lisp

Ruby

@Python I already know Python and it's my favourite programming language (out of two).

@C0D4 lol yes I started with php. But I honestly would recommend JavaScript. So flexible and powerful.

Learning fuckfuck did more for my life than almost anything else. It was steep to begin with, but once it started to click, I was able to curse with a dexterity previously unknown to me. Now when people swear nearby my mind immediately transforms this into event driven fuckfuck and I get little epiphanies.

@devTea i agree with you but Im a dinosaur.

Clojure

Judging by your profile I'd say either TypeScript (with a bit of JavaScript) or Rust

you might as well do brainfuck or whitespace

but you should do Go instead if you want productivity or Rust if you want performance

C# has been a delight to me, and core makes it all the better. Considering your Java background: ever wonder what it's like having Lombok integrated in your language?

You could also check out Kotlin. It'd fit your python background while keeping you around the Java ecosystem, which means Gradle.

JavaScript if you haven't explored it. JS is always nice to have.

I would recommend dart if I didn't loathe dartfmt and them being intent on using 2 spaces for indentation.

Do you want to learn something new and esoteric?

Or something that actually gets used?

C++, cause you can write modules for Python with it.

F#? Not as an advocate. I just want to say I know of someone using it.

@devTea
Actually I'm thinking about learning COBOL and how to debug it (XPAD or something like that, I don't remember the name), to be able to work faster and not having to email someone because a transaction is not working properly

@devTea lol get rich or die tryin‘

java

Scheme
