1.) What is the most looked for (getting a job as a freelancer per se) programming language? It might be C++, but i dont really know.

2.)Does it depend on what needs to be programmed?

+) Can you programme anything in any language?


Thanks

I think right now, Mobile and web developers are most sought for.

So, Java would fit these, right?

It doesn't matter which language you pick. Just start with something, stick with it and become a pro with it. After that you'll be able to pick up any language you want - they all work pretty much the same way, they just have different syntax. Programming language is just a tool that you use to do your work, some languages are better for a specific task and some are worse.

Lots of companies look for Java, not sure on the specifics though.

I agree.

There are alot of programming languages each fit for certain tasks some aren't the best option. Your best option would be to learn what you like get better at it and you're sure to find a job. Just have a target platform. If you're doing Web Development (frontend/backend) Learn some frontend and backend technologies. If you're doing desktop development, focus on that. If you're doing mobile, concentrate on that.

JavaScript developers are in extremely high demand in the software industry. I would recommend starting there, either with server-side JavaScript (Node), or client-side (Angular or React).

If you are a rookie starting out then I would grab any popular programming language and start there. C#, Java, (HTML, CSS, JavaScript, PHP), Ruby, Python, VB.Net. It will take you 5 years of programming and studying before you have skills that you can present to any serious programming employer.

As mentioned above, it's all about developing a programming mindset, not learning a language. To be honest these days chances you may well end up using a closed language developed in-house.

Java for sure. Learning web related languages as well would be a definite plus. HTML and CSS isn't difficult to learn whatsoever. It's kind of just a more complicated BBCode, if you want to think of it that way.

Java, Node.js or Python is what I would suggest. Although a lot of people seem to not like Java, and would suggest that you learn another JVM language, but that doesn't stop the fact that it is use in everything form hedge funds to websites, not so much Desktop, but it never was.

I would suggest Java as it is used for Android, which is massive and can certainly be used for freelance.
