What are the main programming languages software engineers/game designer use?
I’m planning to be a software engineer/game designer later on. What are all the programming languages I need to know to make a successful software like Windows or game like Continent of the Ninth (look it up, this game is amazing!)?
to be a software engineer i would recommend you to be able to program in at least one object oriented language( c#, java, c++ ). C# is my favorite for management program also you would need to know sql or oracle.
if you wanna be a game designer, i would learn c++ because it’s used everywere i went.
PS. i code in c, c#, java, HTML, ASP.NET, JSP, Javascript
i’m familiar with sql server 2005 and access

C / C++
I believe the best for games and lots of other stuff is C++
