Which programming language should i specialise in?

in college, i did cobol, c, c++, java. With regards to jobs now and in the future, which of those is best to pursue further?


My personal fave was c, but im guessing that doesnt have a good future.





we also covered jsp and asp.net (with vb.net) for creating websites, so not sure if thats a better direction to go in?





appreciate some opinions, thanks

Most of my recent graduates (I teach computer science) say that there is a huge demand for Java and C#. So you're in pretty good shape but it wouldn't hurt at all to get some C# and .NET experience if you can. COBOL is about dead; most of my friends who were COBOL programmers are either in or done with COBOL-to-Java conversions and now do most of their coding in Java. Sadly, C and C++ are fading fast in the business sector.
Reply:If you are fresh out of college, do't look beyond C. When you are really good with C and a potential employer is impressed with your C knowledge, you'll find things easier. I say C since you say it is your favourite.





With deep C knowledge, you can get away with very less knowledge on other programming languages.
Reply:My field of expertise in programming is Visual Basic. But nowadays, most applications are connected in the Information Superhighway which is the internet, so i'd prefer ASP.NET/C#/VB.NET.
