kentho:
U even try sef to be EXPERT for 3 languages....

kentho:
Loool... If the industry is to conform to oga larisoft's standards.... I dare say 80% of so called programmers may fall short

Mafizo:
Yep.. We all know it is productivity that matters at the end
But you know very well that no language is an island of itself..No language has all everything ... They need each other to achieve utmost functionality
For example let me focus on my field , if you are developing a page with PHP, you will need other languages like Ajax , jquery and html5 to get a beautiful dynamic page...Only PHP can't do the job

Languages need each other , for me a good programmer should be able to combine different languages to give a good productivity

You must not be a master Of all languages but atleast you should know a little bit what each entails and how to apply certain functionality in them when you encounter a problem while programming . This is called "A modern and dynamic programmer "

This our internet age is fast evolving .. New languages are created and old are improved on.. Don't just tie yourself to one language

Mafizo:
I know that there are people out there who brag that they know up to 7 languages but barely realy know Just 3....There are also others who claim they know up to 7 languages and truly they know and are masters of it ... Don't judge others by your standard... Not because your brain can't accommodate so much doesnt mean others brain can't do so

Leave people to brag.. By their fruit we shall know them

kentho:
Til tomorrow. I'll be looking up to them andela fellows..... Geniuses abound in that fellowship.

kentho:
Finally... Na belle we dey find.... Most Companies out der don't care if you have read clean code, design patterns, etc and implement their designs, procedures and suggestions in your app. They mostly ask for a portfolio of projects you've been involved in. At the end of the day. U writing an app from scratch in the old notepad editor doesn't even matter to them. I guess those abilities only count to renowned and seasoned software bodies like silicon Valley, Google, etc.... Nd maybe in programming competitions... Little wonder u'll come across seasoned developers who have built major apps but yet can't write the fizz buzz program or even sum up the elements of an array.... But finally... Na belle we dey find....

I love this forumn! @Dhtml, Sleepingdemon, Kento, mafizo, discussing topics like this one with you guys from the comfort of my room, while facing a stubborn bug that wont go away, is a fun filled break for me any day!

GoodBoi1:
What's all fuss about KNOWING a language. If you are good in one and can work with another then learn as you go , leverage on your previous experience. After all isn't it the same concepts.

Dangerous talk, let larisoft catch you, you go hear am.

Where is SEUNTHOMAS, he is needed on topics like this.
