Village Genius will become famous soon enough

  Old

Isn't someone a little grumpy today?

I never said to learn one thing and this it for your life, I was saying to be sure to be an expert at what you do before doing to something else. I have since that posted started (and became pretty damn good at .net stuff)

Also, the following are not programming languages:
PHP (scripting language)
ASP (scripting language)
HTML (markup language)
CSS (style data)
Javascript (scripting language)
SQL (application with an advanced querying language).

But for all intents an purposes, we refer to them as programming languages. Yelling at us for SQL not being a programming language is like yelling at someone for referring to a sedan as a car. SQL is for all intents and purposes, a programming language.

Another thing, t-SQL can only in theory be applied to all SQL databases, in practice they must be converted (I had to convert about 200 at work some time ago from MySQL to SQL, don't try and tell me that they are compatible).


Lastly, PHP is a crap language, but it is widely used and lucrative enough if you are a small-time freelancer. It is also one of the easiest and cheapest to start doing professionally.
