Programming languages

MAYBOCH, 2013-11-30 23:12:50

Actually I want to choose a programming language and then not regret my choice in the form of its functionality. Interested in everything from hardware and software to WEB. That is, I want to learn to be a good programmer like the guys with fords. I would like to be able to learn how to write any program for any OS and, if necessary, be able to read any other people's code. And of course to make websites, various applications.
For example, I know that PHP is for the WEB, but how do I find out what other programming languages are suitable for?
Perhaps someone knows where you can find out about this in general in expanded form.
I understand that the request is already very large, but I simply do not know a more "specialized" resource.

In general, I would advise as a starting point a series of articles “Getting Started with Google”:
- How to use
- Advanced search
- Operators in search queries
- Search options and tools
After that, I would advise you to practice on the following queries: "low-level programming", 'assembler', 'best language for software development', 'best language for game development', 'best language for building websites'. It might even be worth trying to open some of the links from the search results pages.
This is if the links from @Andrbez about programming languages are not enough for you, and you still have an interest in programming.

Language is a tool for solving a problem.
For different tasks - different languages.
First formulate a problem, then choose a tool to solve it.
And not vice versa.

Thank you all, I'll try to figure it out, but it looks like the topic is simply huge and pulls more than one article, and more than one question.

Tell me, are you also going to find yourself a multifunctional combine that will wash and cook and take the child to school?
the tool is selected for the task. First, figure out what exactly you want to do - drivers for hardware, scad systems in enterprise process control systems, web, toys, server side, data processing, bad mathematical calculations, like in weather services ...

If you don't understand (the question is really quite difficult) then I'm trying to concentrate on learning the language after which I can deal with any other programming language on my own. For example, if I take PHP, it will limit me to WEB only, so I tried to ask for advice. but as I guessed the question is really very broad.
