since C is officially dead, what is /g/'s new choice of language?

>>61151293
C is as alive as it's ever been.

>>61151301
It's not being actively taught anymore.
People must reach out and learn it of their own volition.
That is why it is slowly dying.

>>61151364
Yes it is, idiot.

I took two classes that were focused on C last quarter and am scheduled for a networking course in C in the fall. Maybe they don't actively teach it as an intro, but some universities definitely still teach it.

>>61151364
It's still taught in any decent university. Let me know where you're from so I can not hire you.

C is just not valuable to learn these days. What is a worthwhile programming language to learn for someone who values time and quality of life?

>>61151293
Python

>>61151407
It is not. C++ and java are taught in academia.
C has been used for operating system classes, but even that has been moving on to c++.

>>61151467
You clearly don't know what you're talking about. C is still used extensively in systems programming, and is nowhere near being replaced.
Only some stupid webdev would possible think C is not valuable.

>>61151293
even if you think its dying on computers, its still alive in the embedded world

C

>>61151293
C++, of course

>>61151471
I've heard really good things about this language. Short and sweet, plus a great choice for careers. Thanks for the input.

>>61151486
You're correct. That's all I see being taught these days, C is just not "in" anymore. Regardless of what >>61151487 is saying about it.

>>61151486
>but even that has been moving on to c++
Fucking nobody writes operating systems in C++. That's fucking retarded.

>>61151506
I really want to learn C++. The language is fucking massive. I wonder if I should wait for C++17 to release first, though.

>>61151518
C++ is a horrible language, only used by horrible programmers.

>>61151518
C++14 is fine and respectable compilers already support most of C++17

>>61151528
What makes you say this?
>>61151549
Awesome. I didn't know anyone had started to support it yet. That's quick! Time to dig in

Rust looks very promising. Are there lots of libraries for general things nowadays?

don't forget Rust is 2x faster than C

>>61151486
wrong, I'm literally taking classes based on C right now.

No it's not, you fucking idiot.

>>61151660
You forgot one:
no bindings to any other language

>>61151364

Not as a first language, but it is still taught at every university worth mentioning. You can't really have a class in computer architecture, security, or operating systems, without using C. And the architecture part at the very least should be mandatory.

>>61152276

Eh, Rust can export functions that can be used by any language with a C FFI.

>>61151293
C++17 & C++20

>>61151293
OP, you will die sooner than C does, trust me on that.

>>61151486

I had a grand total of 0 classes taught in C++, with C being the preferred language for anything related to bare metal or systems shit.

>>61152337
This. Algorithms, data structures, threading, networking, etc. were all taught and examined in C.

>>61151486
>implying
We learn Java and C here. Not a word on C++.

>>61151293
C++

>>61151293
Java

>It's pushed on /dpt/ Designated Pajeet Thread
No it's not, /dpt/ hates it.
Because after all, they are the Designated Pajeet Thread.

>>61151868
>don't forget Rust is 2x faster than C
So about the same speed as C++?

>>61151293
Gotta love this meme. Is C the new Fortran? Everyone trying to proclaim its death...

>>61152609
It's just that these paid rustshills are trying to promote rust by bashing C.

>>61152323
this desu. only are you required to know C, its also nice to be familiar with syntax for verilog and such

>>61152775
Or worse, Java fags aka pajeets

Scheme, have you read your SICP today?
