What's the best language to learn for an aspiring coder who wants a language that will actually help with attaining employment?

I've thought of going the way of web dev, but it seems slightly boring.

HolyC

thanks user
I thought PHP was barely used these days due to newer languages.

Almost every webdev company uses PHP, although usually laravel or symfony but still PHP

if your planning on getting into programming its the easiest to learn and once you've learned one language its easier to start learning others like python

I've had stints with Python and honestly Python seems easier. In a practical environment what is Python used for? Just backend scripiting?

>help with attaining employment?
Java(Script)?

So JS, PHP, and C. Leaning toward web dev languages then.

A lot of our internal tooling at my work is built with python. We mainly use it for automated testing, because the frontend guys don't know what the fuck is going on.

How to get around getting bored on linux and refrain myself from switching to windows? Installed linux in the hopes I will find more programming tasks.

>C
Replace with Java or C#

Hello sir, please do the needful and deled this post, only Java is worth learning.

Ricing and shitposting on Jow Forums

Is C++ really that useless these days? I've always thought of it as the ultimate language for software development the last 10 years of my life.
Referring to both of you now, I've always stayed away from Java because it's such an odd language and just seems really bloated whenever you start to put too much stress on it.

learn Assembly.

There is always a huge demand for Java, so if employment's the only thing you're looking for then go for Java. I do use Kotlin at work, which is SOOO much better than Java, but is still pretty new, so most companies still use Java.

I myself prefer web development, with js frameworks such as React, but each to his own.

>I do use Kotlin at work, which is SOOO much better than Java
bet then ur limited to android work

In rough order from easy to hard of getting a job right now.
Web Dev = Javascript, PHP
Mobile Dev = Java, Obj C, possibly Swift
Software Dev = Python, Java, C++
Systems = C, and then C++

Actually not. We use it to develop automation components that are then used to make deployment to our PAAS(Openshift) easier for projects. We do not use it for big projects tho.

I notice Jow Forums doesn't focus at all on data science but I imagine python runs that world.
