Most important programming language

[Xerantes]

Hey fellows This question just hit me. What is the most important programming language at the moment? I did a google search on that therm, but i doesn't reveal anything use full. So. What do think?

The most important language is the one that you use to make a living and is therefore likely to be different for each person. I suspect that you don't actually mean important. Dis you mean popular, widely used or something else.

Definitely C# at the moment... it pays my bills

:omg: Hide this message!!!! What would happen if The Osmosian Order would see it and would restart the "plain english" nightmare? :rolleyes: Sorry... couldn't resist... [from here it tries to be a serious post] If you meant popular then I'd choose C# If you meant important... then the question lacks some details: like industry type, target...

Doesn't answer your question directly, as I don't understand what you mean by 'important', but shows the most popular programming languages: clickety[^]

Exactly. Either that or using a Hex keypad like on my old Z80 with 2K of memory.

Commercially: It seems to be C# though many say Java is still king. (Not that it shows up in the adds I see though). Technically: C will always be the most important language. Period. Its the backbone of everything. Embedded code, compilers, OSs, the lot. --edit-- Aeroplanes, space shuttles, elevators, ...
