4. C# C#, pronounced as C Sharp is a general-purpose object-oriented programming language designed by Microsoft. It was originally designed as part of the .NET framework for building Windows applications. Like Swift is the preferred programming language for ios applications, C# is the prominent programming language for building applications native to Microsoft platforms. It works for applications powered by .NET frameworks. So, if you know .NET and want to make a career in this then C# is the best language to use for building apps native to the Microsoft platform. It is also a recommended language for developing games using the Unity Game engine. Copyright @ 2018 Learntek. All Rights Reserved.
C# is also popular amongst mobile developers to develop mobile applications in Android and iOS. It is used to build cross-platform apps on the Xamarin platform. Instead of writing separate apps for iOS and Android you can write a single application in Xamarin and C# will take care of the deployment in both the platforms simultaneously. It is currently holding 6thposition in the TIOBE index. There are less highly skilled developers in C# as compared to Java. Hence, job opportunities are immense for highly skilled developers. 5. R R is a programming language whose popularity is increasing day by day which has helped it to secure its position in the top 10 programming languages in recent times. These days Data Science and Analytics are the talking points in the industry. It’s very difficult to talk about these domains without mentioning R. Copyright @ 2018 Learntek. All Rights Reserved.
One important reason for it is statistical computing and R is the most popular language when it comes to statistics, graphic representation and data analysis. It has very simple syntax and it is very easy to learn and because of its graphical capabilities, it is overpowering some of the tools for data analysis like SASS, Python, etc. It has a free and open-source Integrated Development Environment called R Studio using which you can develop all kinds of analytics programs, you can do visualizations, machine learning and so on. As far as the ranking of R is concerned it will improve in the time to come as Data Analytics is here to stay. It also powers few search engines and Google to uses it for analytics purposes.

6. JavaScript It is impossible to become a software or web developer without using JavaScript in some way. It is a lightweight, interpreted programming language and is designed for creating network-centric applications. It is the most popular language among developers worldwide as per Stack Overflow’s Developer Survey 2018. It is an essential web development tool and helps you to build interactive websites along-side HTML and CSS. A majority of websites rely on JavaScript to create interactive web pages. It is very difficult to find a web page that does not use JavaScript to display its content and hence it is called the language of the web. It is one of the most sought-after skills in recent times and this is the reason that there are a lot of job opportunities in the market for a skilled JavaScript developer. It is also used in mobile application development since more than 50% of mobile applications use JavaScript. Copyright @ 2018 Learntek. All Rights Reserved.
With the newer versions ES6 & ES7 its popularity is rising.

On the other hand, the issues with Objective-C is that the apps keep getting crashed constantly. Copyright @ 2018 Learntek. All Rights Reserved.
Now since Swift lets you manipulate text strings in data it is less error-prone. Another important feature of Swift is dynamic libraries. These libraries can be linked directly to Swift applications and since they are uploaded directly to the memory they reduce application size and improve performance. If we discuss its applications Swift was basically designed to work on the Cocoa and Cocoa Touch framework and it was developed mainly for mac, iPhone and other ios applications and this is the reason that application development is at its core. So, if you are interested in making a career in ios development then Swift is a very good option. Although it’s not very high in ranking in the TIOBE index since it is only 4 years old language and the ranking is expected to improve in the near future. Copyright @ 2018 Learntek.

The only drawback for choosing a career in Ruby is that it is not very high in ranking and is not as popular as other programming languages such as Python, Java, C, C++, etc. 10. Scala It is a high-level programming language. It stands for Scalable Language. It was developed while rewriting Java while improving its drawbacks. Its code is compiled to run on Java Virtual Machine (JVM). It is terse, efficient and is very effective. It is a multi-paradigm programming language and it is known for its concurrency. Copyright @ 2018 Learntek. All Rights Reserved.
Since the objective of design this language was to improve the drawbacks of Java it is faster than Java. It uses a multi-core architecture and if the no. of cores is increased it gets faster. Also, it has a very concise syntax and a great vocabulary. It is used in various applications such as web development, distributed systems, application development and so on. Frameworks of Scala include Play, Akka, spray, slick, finagle, etc. Finagle is an extensible RPC system for the JVM, used to construct high-concurrency servers.
