You have a specialization you want to pursue and that's a good thing to do.

thanks, but i also would like advice and tips from professionals like you  so give me as much info as you possibly can  

 

much appreciated and many thanks

since you are a senior, i am sure you would be able to give me the best tips on how can i learn C and java quick and in a professional way. by the way why you suggested me to stop learning C ? if it's the best language for hardware level programming? by the way i am also doing assembler too  

I believe this forum has resources for learning Java back on it's main thread for programming. Udemy has great courses for this as well, depending of the application type you are trying to develop.

 

From what I understand C has not matured to today's standards: https://www.quora.com/Which-one-should-I-learn-first-C-or-C++
Keep in mind that building applications is easy, but building applications that last is very difficult. Build your application roots as mentioned in my previous post.

Also, Visual Studio supports C++ natively...

Which problem is not covered by C?

Web front-ends  The reality is you can solve a problem in probably any language, but that doesn't mean you should. If C was the be-all-end-all of programming languages, then why is it not solely taught in CS programs across the world and solely used by companies?

[Dat Guy]

It actually is. Depending on your location. 

 

Also, C is perfect for web frontends.

Which universities teach just one (programming) language?

[Dat Guy]

German universities exclusively teach Java (or Python, depends) these days.

Why do they teach just one language?I'm sure they cover embedded systems and web/mobile development so one language doesn't seem enough.

[Dat Guy]

Those are optional.

There is some disparity between commercial/actual codding and university studies. When you work as Python developer you make for example web apps with Django. When you study computer science on a university you are learning about why and how things work. You may have basics of making an Android or a Django web app but in general it's not "commercial" stuff specific to popular software stacks. So if a university "teaches" a language then it means it uses given language as a tool to teach computer science with.

 

Some companies do offer commercial-value courses (like Microsoft) so if someone wants to he/she can get some commercial knowledge at university too - but not mandatory.

These universities differ a lot from universities in my region, universities over here teach at least 3 languages, usually C, C++ and Java.C is probably used for embedded systems subjects (usually first language) and C++ for computer graphics (openGL).

There is always some diversity and then specialization but still a lot of things can be done with using one main language, especially if it's not full on Computer Science study.
