    What Language Should I Learn?

    I currently can only write in java, but I am looking to expand. What programming languages do you guys recommend to learn next.

    Java, C++ and C# are very similar in syntax and have almost identical control statements, so you'll pick up on them pretty easy. Only thing I suggest is to learn them from scratch. Don't apply to what you already know in Java or skip over a concept because you think it's the same. There are a lot of subtle but important differences that you may miss if you treat the language like Java.

    And the same goes for any other languages that seem similar in any way.

    Thank you for your help. I'll keep that in mind.

    Like what WoodHouse said I would start with C/C++. Java's based of off them so it'll be easier.
