<p><strong>Update 11/23/2020:</strong> The ultimate winner for my primary programming language was <strong><a href="https://racket-lang.org/">Racket</a></strong>.</p>

<p>The <a href="/2008/01/17/2008-programming-language-plan.html">2008 Programming Language Plan</a> didn’t go as well as I hoped, so I’m regrouping for another go at it. I did make progress learning some Logo and teaching it to my daughters, and I worked through seven chapters of “Programming in Haskell” which was very enjoyable, but I also spent way too much time trying to decide which language(s) to learn without actually learning them.</p><a href="https://blog.lojic.com/2009/04/27/2009-programming-language-plan.html?utm_source=logo&utm_medium=Atom"><em>More…</em></a>2008 Programming Language Planurn:https-blog-lojic-com:-2008-01-17-2008-programming-language-plan-html2008-01-17T17:00:00Z2008-01-17T17:00:00ZBrian Adkins
<p>I’ve learned a number of programming languages since I began programming 25 years ago. Earlier in my career, my choice of which programming language to learn was largely driven by external factors such as a class or job requirement, or the expectation of job demand in the future.</p><a href="https://blog.lojic.com/2008/01/17/2008-programming-language-plan.html?utm_source=logo&utm_medium=Atom"><em>More…</em></a>Logo, Ruby & JavaScripturn:https-blog-lojic-com:-2007-08-31-logo-ruby-javascript-html2007-08-31T16:00:00Z2007-08-31T16:00:00ZBrian Adkins
<p>I’ve been teaching my eldest daughter to program in Logo over the summer. Brian Harvey has posted PDF files for a set of excellent books on learning to program in Logo on his <a href="http://www.cs.berkeley.edu/~bh/logo.html">web site</a>. The Berkeley version of Logo he’s produced is really excellent. It’s not just your typical turtle graphics language; it has arrays, macros, file processing, graphics, etc.</p><a href="https://blog.lojic.com/2007/08/31/logo-ruby-javascript.html?utm_source=logo&utm_medium=Atom"><em>More…</em></a>
