Best Coding Languages to Know

Languages both for programming and for web development are all necessary and are at the same time awesome. But which ones are the ones you should learn first? What order should you learn them to effectively become an awesome developer? Well here we go this list will help everyone know which language to learn when.


1. HTML (Hyper Text Markup Language)
This is the very first language you should learn in order to build websites and it the most common and most demanded. If you go into an interview for building websites but you don't know HTML you will never get the job. With the creation of HTML5 we are seeing things like Canvas which can be used to draw images using code.


2. CSS (Cascading Style Sheet)
This is the best way to style your websites to give the specific flare required to make a website look awesome and keep your viewers interested. It can also add hover effects and is now able to create animations with CSS3 this will make any website look much more professional.



3. PHP (Hypertext Preprocessor)
Originally made for building websites but can be used for gathering info from the user, generating dynamic content, and sending/receiving cookies. (I personally am learning this still but haven't needed it enough to get the entire language memorized.) This will be useful for everyone who wants to have a user based website or wants to have form information received and stored into the server


4. Javascript
An amazing language that is used for dynamic content. I suggest learning this language before any programming language because it's a nice introduction to the programming side of coding. Containing variables, functions, if/else statements, while statements, and more, Javascript makes nearly anything possible with web development. 


5. Java
After learning Javascript you learn quickly the syntax needed to create Java programs. Java and Javascript are two different languages but have similar syntax which means you will learn quickly. Java is a powerful programming language that could be used for created nearly any type of program and is one of the most requested languages for programmers, why? because it can be used on nearly every single device so long as it jas Java downloaded onto it.


6. C++
This is another programming language that is used solely on it's own. This language can do anything you need it to so long as you understand the syntax. One of the most powerful languages you will ever learn. It is an update to C which is also very powerful. Learning both is smart but C++ is much more commonly used not to mention it's very fast.


7. Actionscript (used in Adobe Flash)
I know that most people learn this language earlier on and the only reason I'm putting it last is because you have to pay for it and it is much less practical to the common programmer just starting out without the ability to pay for a powerful program such as flash.
However with that aside this language is very powerful and can create some of the coolest effects you will see in coding because it is rooted into Flash.
