I played a little bit with Basic (also VBA) and Pascal. Currently I professionally I work with C++ and in home with D :-)

PS. Thanks a lot for D 1.0 !

Primary:
PHP (work)
C++ (Home)

History:

gwbasic, quickbasic, VB, C, C++, PHP, D.

With sidesteps to other like perl, python, asm, etc.

I'm not long into D yet about a week or two but seriously ... couldn't D be invented like 30 years ago ... would have made several project of mine quite a bit more relaxed.

Greetings.

As most others include their history, here is mine:

C128 basic/6502 ASM
Turbo Pascal
Delphi
C++ at work (mostly COM like stuff), although C# is getting more
D currently for private projects only :-(

Ruby


You just wanted to know only the primary one ;)

My first language (and my favourite) was ASM. I started on the 68HC11, but then I moved to intel. I programmed in SpAsm (which is now called RosAsm). Work has required me to write in PHP, but I don't like it. I'm full time D and php now.

I'll go back to asm when I get a chance. I really enjoyed the syntax of SpAsm much more than standard syntax of say FASM or NASM. I may program a patch to D to support such syntax in the future if I start writing asm again.

mwahahaa :D
Logo is cool stuff!

Try this one:

loop 10
  loop 36
    forward 10
    right 10
  loopend
  right 36
loopend

Java (and for the moment that's still the primary one ... but it might change)

C++ & Python

D feels very natural coming from using those languages over the last few years.
