What programming languages to learn in 2017?Programming-Languages

Much like flared jeans and shell suits, programming languages can go in and out of fashion over time (and let’s face it, some should have never been allowed to exist in the first place).

The usefulness of a language can also vary depending on what it’s being used for – for example in gaming versus web development. As David explains in the blog, it’s difficult to make an accurate prediction for which language will power ahead in the next year. Nonetheless, he has some top tips to help you to decide for yourself whether a language is worth your time or whether it has a surefire expiration date.
