Which programming language "pay" better ?

Post by Kevinphp7 »

Hello.

The question is not correct. However, which languages do you think pay better? I had a serious discussion with a famous professor and he told me that Php and Ruby, are not the TOP paid languages.

Which programming language " pay" better ? What do you think? C,C++, Python, Perl , Java or what else?



I would like to hear your opinions.

That's also going to vary by location. PHP has an exceptionally low barrier to entry, which probably pushes average salaries down. Top notch developers are still going to command top dollar regardless of language.

I can't agree with you more. It is the programmer who drives the *pay* and not the programming language !
