Along with English, make sure you know java.
Reply:I think it depends on the company where you work; they're usually adaptable to what you've learned.





C++ and Java are the major languages being taught, but in computational linguistics, where I've taken classes, Python/Lisp seems to be a popular choice. If you're in college, I can't imagine that any language that you've worked with extensively, besides Basic or HTML, would be "dead" yet.





Intro to programming/second semester courses and CS department courses sound like your best bet, and you might stumble upon a language that you really like. The first two should give you a good guage as to where you are relative to where people teach.





Here at the University of Michigan, the engineering department offers Engin 101 as the introductory course: MATLAB and C++. EECS 280 is essentially the follow-up, which focuses on C++ but in a more advanced manner. EECS 281 follows that, and the rest of the department opens up after 281.
