PHP is nice but for the really high level professional stuff its not enough I have to disagree here. I can name you just a few big companies that use PHP and MySQL and I think that tells enough. 1. Facebook 2. Youtube 3. Google 4. Yahoo 5. GMC -------------------- Check out my <a href="https://www.guitarmasterclass.net/instructor/Emir-Hot" target="_blank">Instructor profile</a>

The real problem with PHP is that he is not well known and that he does not have the consistency of Java or .NET. It's open source. And the second problem is that companies prefer to talk with a certified .NET or Java programmer with Sun and Microsoft backing him. The PHP certification is not well known and it is really hard to distinct between a good and a bad PHP developer as a lot of script kiddies are playing with it. But when you work with pros, PHP can be really powerful especially the version 5 which is fully object oriented. Still, PHP leaves you the freedom to choose between complexity and speed without struggling with the language itself. You build it the way you want it to work by optimizing and compiling his core. I dunno a lot about Java and .NET but I really know PHP and I can tell you that it's very powerful. PHP 6 is nearly out and will have even better OOP support. Books are already printed. The good thing about this is that everything is free php, mysql, apache all that stuff is free with an extensive documentation and support. Top-pro sites use it and it is a good proof of reliability for me. There are also good frameworks for PHP (e.g. Zend). Microsoft servers are not free plus I can't think of anything in .net framework that cannot be done in PHP. Somebody can laugh about it but who can think that a company with multi billion profit such as Facebook would use something that programers laugh about? -------------------- Check out my <a href="https://www.guitarmasterclass.net/instructor/Emir-Hot" target="_blank">Instructor profile</a>

Hi, David.
I've been working with C++ for 8 years. I am an electrical engineer, currently working towards my PhD in Mobile Communication and even though programming is not my main objective, I really had to master C++ to conduct my research which involves computer simulation of mobile communication systems. I can remember I checked a couple of times jobs at Line 6 and they sometimes look for people who have experience with C++ and musical background is a plus. Testing vintage amps and simulating them, I think that would be a dream job for you, wouldn't it? Well, I thought myself of applying to it a couple of times The C and then C++ path, is probably one of the hardest to get through (it would need quite a large effort to master it. I am talking about years not months), but it is probably also one of the most rewarding. If you decide to go for that path I can suggest a book called "Essential C++", Stanley Lippman, and then "The C++ programming language" by Bjarne Stroustrup.
