Understanding Languages 1

Hey guys and ladies,

First of all, Happy New Year everyone 🙂 !!!

How’s it going?

Welcome again to another day in the life of a software engineer.

Today I want to talk about languages. So I have been very interested in languages for quite a large part of my life – I guess everyone generally is interested in languages. I remember when I was little and my dad will gather I and my siblings in the sitting room and teach us elementary German, yeah he was an awesome dad like that 🙂 .

Hi, I had previously told you guys that I worked with CypherCrescent as the Domain Specific Language (DSL) focal point for their software development team. Well I didn’t start off being the DSL focal point from day one; I started as a developer working with the DSL team… No, Not really, I started as a full stack developer with the web development team (I later became the HOD of that team).

I started my programming experience with Java (not the coffee but the language **smiles**) specifically with J2SE. I then went ahead to learn…
