Post how many programming languages that you know. If you can name them, please do. I am going to learn a new programming language, and I want to learn a popular one, which is where you guys come in.

I currently know:
ROBLOX Lua, C++, HTML, CSS, JavaScript, PHP, and jQuery

HTML and CSS aren't programming languages. But I know Lua, some VBScript, and some Java.

On topic: If you're looking for the ways of the future:

C# is apparently going to be the future or something. I still like C++, idk.

HTML5 is also the future of everything web development. So if you could like dream in HTML5 you'd be on the right track.

^ C# is nice but personally I don't like the class oriented approach, how everything revolves around classes. Although, Lua revolves around tables in a similar manner.

I'd say C++ is your best bet, depends what you wanna do in the industry.

C++ is just so much of everything you need... C# forces you into OOP even if you don't want/need it. Objective C has just become outdated imo.

If you're looking for a nice new language...

Rust > C++ for things that need to run fast
Golang > C# for stuff in the middle
Lua > Python >?= Ruby for scripting

But unfortunately Rust & Golang aren't used that much. Go is getting very popular but is really new. Rust isn't that popular at all but it'll probably pick up eventually.

I'm guessing you want to actually be able to do stuff though, so you'd want the most mainstream languages that everybody uses: C#, C++, Java, Javascript, and Python. Lua if you want to make games.

@sam I tried Java, seems a bit weird to me (the syntax). I personally like C++ better.

I know Lua and Python. :D
Python is stupid, Lua is fun. :D
I want to learn C and C++, and Ruby, and PHP, but I'm not too devoted to that at the moment.

@Cow How is C# a ripoff of Java? Java was made because C++ is "too complicated".

@Cow That is because Java is made out of C++ -_-
