What do you think are the future oriented languages for an IT aspirant?

Question

Wanted to enlighten self or others on this.

Answer 1

There is no single language that is effectively able to solve all computing problems. There are many "mainstream" languages widely used in IT, and all of them have their own flaws and drawbacks.
In my opinion, currently Kotlin has very good potential to become a widely adopted, universal application programming language.
And Rust has very good potential to become the standard systems programming language.

Depending on your meaning by "future oriented". I think there are a lot of exciting new ideas in languages which are lesser known and probably never going to be mainstream. But learning them can charge your programming skillset with new powers.
Functional languages, such as Haskell, Clojure, F# or Elm have powerful ways to make code more expressive, easily testable, and work great in distributed computing environment.
I really like Scala 3 that tries to combine the pro's of OOP with functional programming, and with the braceless syntax of Python.
