I look through on General Chat and found out that Vain create topic on what Programming language you using which dated by 2009  :o

4 Years on, we are now 2013 and it is good time to create topic that can kick on :)

It would be interesting to know what Programming language you using right now because everythings is changing over the years

It would also be good to know all the fans of this forum on what programming Language you are using this year:)

Unfortunately I haven't had time to do any demo coding in a very long time, but work wise and for personal tinkering I am mostly using C++ with a sprinkling of Objective C and Java.

What are you using Hotshot?

At home, C (with C++ compiler so can get away with declaring variables anywhere when bashing code into shape before making it 'clean' )

At work, Objective C as i've just started working on the OS X version of our stuff, but usually C/C++ with or without some MFC. I also do some occasional javascript and php if helping out on another part of the product.

c# for me for nearly everything these days :)

I've dabbled with C#, but my main languages these days are JavaScript, PHP and ActionScript.

Of those, JavaScript lends itself best to demo coding, but since PHP can be used to write JavaScript, it would be interesting to see how the two would work in tandem.

Javascript and Actionscript mostly and ocasionally a bit of Lua when I'm visiting me mums and I manage to steal the iPad in between her playing Wordfeud.

Like CK I've been wanting to include php to make the javascripts a bit more interesting. I wish to pick up a few lower level languages as well but more interesting projects, life and lazyness are delaying those endeavors...

I'm urrently thinking about writing a simple evolution sim to play with, after I read a short story (Crabs on the island) by Anatoly Dneprov. Representing the various mutatable properties of the creatures with interesting visuals.

i must be still living in the stone ages, i can code in most languages quite well but stick with free basic blitz and a bit of cpp. i even from time too time use jims ps2 yabasic emulator still.
ohh and on top of that ive been building my own electronics projects lately with the parallax micro controller and breadboards so have had too learn the spin language too...

but like i say i stick with the good old stuff.. you could through me from an air craft at 10,000 feet and i would still get more of an adrenaline rush from peeking and poking raw instructions into my zx speccies memory then watching her strut her stuff.

C# for work and C++ for play, mostly. Doing more and more LUA stuff to compliment the C++, which I'm not hating on some much these days.
Title: Re: What Programming Language are you using now?

Mainly C++, Java and Freebasic.

C, C++, now learning the new (really powerful) C++11 Standard.

Currently only C. I do know more languages, but as a matter of fact I don't mind working more to get a better result ;).

I am trying to code my first synth, it's modules will be converted from XM to a smaller format, and played in real time with sync support, 4kb with chiptune music!

Good for you :) But don't be so quick to assume anything done in C can outdo anything done in any other language ;)

oh, and congrats on starting the new synth :)

C# for work. (in the past I did 6510, 68000, 8086, 80386, C, C++, Turbo Pascal, Delphi, Visual Basic, Java)
I'm reading a book on parallel programming with Cuda. My last demo was for the Amiga, but now I want to create another demo, because all those Cuda cores are great for creating demos.

Bash script.  Whenever I think of a cool program, I find someone's already written a command line tool to do it, and all I have to do is download and

tar xvzf software.tar.gz ; cd software ; ./configure --prefix="$HOME/myroot" && make && make install

and then run, or even better

sudo apt-get install software

and then run, or

sudo port install software

and then run.  Really, I can do everything through the bash terminal proompt these days.  Who needs C++ anymore?

I use bash scripting nearly daily, have to love custom scripts, that and TCL also. For my intro making I was/have been learning FreeBasic and PureBasic (which I haven't touched for a while though). Not enough time in the day.
