Most of us are familiar with C, C
++, JAVA and Python etc., but as you go into
this field, you will realize the value and
amount of money that can be earned with
some other languages. Here's a list of the
highest paying computer programming
languages.
T he favorite coding language debate is one of the
hottest topics of discussion among the coders and
programmer has his/her own reasons to defend a
particular language. Last year the average salary
of a computer programmer inched towards an all-
time high of $100,000.
There are some languages which make your skill set
more valuable and Quartz has compiled all this
data and based on a study from the Brookings
Institution, it has created a list of the highest
paying computer programming languages.
These are the highest paying computer
programming languages ranked by salary:
.
1. Ruby On Rails - - $109,460
2. Objective C - - $108,295
3. Python - - $100,717
4. Java - - $94, 908
5. C++ - - $93,502
6. JavaScript -- $91,461
7. C -- $90.134
.
.
If you love to play with codes and you are having
full command over some of these computer
programming languages, you can earn around $
100,000. You should learn more diverse languages
and focus on your strengths if you want one of
the highest paying jobs in tech.

Serious lies.
Where is php? The popular language on which wordpress (the most used plugin) is built?

Php is not as needed as those the ops listed.


Swift comes first $111 000
Ruby.
Objective C
Python, C, C++, Java
C#, SQL, php

...

Definitely not in Nigeria...the salary of a junior programmer is even less than $10, 000

Those are annual salaries

Unless you are developing for Mac OS X, iOS, TvOS, etc etc I don't see how Swift comes as #1.

One programming guru once told me that......
"People don't pay programming languages, they pay programming experts..."
so be the best in the languages you choose.....

After some serious analysis, someone come up with this infograph

Op, next time use your brain before doing aimless copy and paste.
Your speaking american salaries to a 3 world market.

Who will pay you these amounts here? If you can't earn such here then how useful is your information,since it doesnt apply?

$100k = (N30m+. Almost N40m) ?
Your head correct so?

Stop over-exaggerating $100k per year is about 20 million naira per year. There are some senior software engineers/devs that make close to that or that much. Keep in mind if you do research you will find $100k/year is not the average salary for an American software engineer.

how much is a dollar to the naira? N200? Check the current black market rate before you reply.
multiply that by $100k . tell me your answer.
in the us. $100k is not the max a developer can earn.
It hovers around that. they're developers that earn twice that or more.

But I'm talking about nigeria.
Which software company here pays $100k/yr here? fill me in.
how many ruby on rails devs are making $100k+ in nigeria?

That info is useless in nigeria.

Some one just fetches irrelevant data online, doesnt think , dumps it on here and oh! we have a thread.
No thinking?!

Hmmm, why the over paying of Object C? Hmmmm
Also it seems that the more common languages like PHP, Javascript have cheaper salaries....
I think C++ should be the most paying followed by Java then C#, Python, etc

Well I don't know d authenticity of d site d op referenced but from what I read sometimes last yr that in the US, Javascript and Java happens to b d highest paid...

Everyone of us can do d research... I doubt if d list is 100% valid...

Oga convert 150k * 12 to dollars and see how much you get......devs in nigeria don't even near $50k

is it yearly, monthly or daily pay?

Jayke50:

is it yearly, monthly or daily pay?

It's definitely per year. Why would it be per month though? When they're not footballers.

And the pay most times depend on what the company is offering and what theyake from the projects these developers are working on. This reason is why most Nigerian developers don't earn that much.
