What languages are learnt in Computer Science?

I remember seeing an internet page where they were listed them somewhere but I can no longer find it.

So what languages? (Or better yet, does anyone know that page that lists them?)

Thanks

First year you learn C
Second year is java, perl and probably php. If you do DBs you learn SQL etc.

We do not teach .NET AFAIK

at usyd, first year programming includes java and i think python...and you can choose to take some basic SQL.

Depends on what subjects you take.

Languages you won't be able to avoid:
1. C
2. Java

Languages you'll probably learn:
1. Perl
2. C++
3. assembly (AVR)
4. SQL(although this isn't turing complete so it's debatable whether you want to call it a computer language)
5. Maple (1st year math)

Languages you might also learn(probably on your own):
1. Python
2. Haskell
3. PHP
4. Lisp
5. Mathematica (if you choose to do more math/do actuarial math)

Languages that you won't see much at UNSW but are popular elsewhere:
1. languages supporting the .NET framework (VB, C#, etc)
2. Ruby

avr is a definite. You need to take the microprocessors course in second year. You would also do perl in the software construction course

same as maple, and it's fucking terrible.
