 Here are the top 5 coding languages to learn in 2021

In today's world, programming skills are needed for the majority of tech jobs. A good tech career necessitates the knowledge of programming languages. After all, thousands of different programming languages are used by people all over the world. But, of all these languages, which is the most commonly spoken?
This yyear we have compiled a list of the top 5 programming languages for engineers to keep an eye on:

1.PYTHON

For people just starting out with computer science in 2021, and even for those with some experience with this language, Python is something every programmer should be comfortable with. This language offers an intuitive and easy-to-learn syntax that makes it a popular choice among beginners and professionals alike. The beauty of Python is that it is extremely versatile, as it can almost be used anywhere. Whether you want to work on some back-end application of a website or mobile application, or you want to on some data science-related work, Python is critical to these tasks and many more. Python is the preferred language in the areas of machine learning, deep learning, artificial intelligence, and other data science fields. Data science is the hottest topic these days, as businesses and companies are now extracting insights from data analysis and using that to further grow their markets. Libraries, such as TensorFlow, Keras, Scikit, etc., have made the computation required for running different models extremely cheap and fast to execute.

According to PayScale's data, the average Python developer salary in the US is $77,362 per year

2.JAVASCRIPT

JavaScript is one of the most widely used languages, as it is considered the standard programming language of the web. It is used in almost every website you have seen on the Internet. JavaScript provides a syntax that allows it to be used in both the front-end and back-end sections of websites, showing the flexibility and power that it possesses. In addition to HTML and CSS, JavaScript offers a way that allows users to not only develop and design their websites but also make their websites more dynamic by adding functionalities to the elements present in the site. Moreover, Javascript is also the fundamental language used in web frameworks, such as React, Vue, and Node, making it the undisputed king in the web development department. Websites that you regularly visit, such as Google, YouTube, and Wikipedia, were all created using JavaScript.

According to Payscale, the average salary for Javascript developers is $84,638 per year 

3.C/C++

C is one of the oldest, fastest programming languages, and it forms the foundation of most popular languages like C#, Java, and JavaScript. C++ is basically just an enhanced version of C.

Both languages are essential for any career in computer science and programming. C and C++ developers can use compilers for most platforms, and they are high-performance languages, so they’re used to build programs where performance is essential, including, kernel development, client/server applications, and large commercial products (Adobe and Firefox).

C/C++ also plays a huge role in the areas of game development, computer graphics, and virtual reality, which are all predicted to rise in 2021. Almost all big companies look for C/C++ skills.

According to PayScale, an average C++ developer salary in the United States stands at $71,677 per year. 

4.Kotlin

Kotlin is a cross-platform, statically typed, general-purpose programming language with type inference. Kotlin is designed to interoperate fully with Java. Kotlin is a language developed by JetBrains whose work revolves around the development of Android applications. This is precisely why Google decided to name Kotlin as the official language for Android development, putting it ahead of Java. And, as Android is the highest-selling mobile operating system, the fact that Kotlin is one of the languages to learn in 2021 comes as no surprise.

 the majority of Kotlin Developer salaries currently range between $113,000 (25th percentile) to $147,000 (75th percentile) with top earners (90th percentile) making $158,500 annually across the United States.

5.JAVA

Java is one of the most common, in-demand computer programming languages used today. 

Owned by Oracle Corporation, this general-purpose programming language with its object-oriented structure has become a standard for applications that can be used regardless of platform (e.g., Mac, Windows, Android, iOS, etc.) because of its Write Once, Run Anywhere (WORA) capabilities. As a result, Java is recognized for its portability across platforms, from mainframe data centers to smartphones. Today there are more than 3 billion devices running applications built with Java.

According to PayScale's data, the average Python developer salary in the US is $77,362 per year.
