programming language in maximum demand (fwd)

[The Tech Writer <techwrtr -at- crl -dot- com>]

I've looked into this for my own purposes, as well (to most effectively
spend my post-baccalaureate education dollars--that is, on the once $13
but now $50 per unit classes). In my search for the most designer
language, I found that C++ was most *definitely* the most commonly
mentioned in job advertisements for technical writers. I expect to double
my salary once I get a certificate in programming. If I had a second
bachelor's in programming, I'm certain I could "name my price."

Start looking in the job posting sections of the usenet groups (I,
personally, used ba.jobs.offered). I expect that you'll come to the same
conclusion.

Subject: programming language in maximum demand

One of my students in a technical writing class is exploring programming
as a career.  Where could he find the national data on the most wanted
programming languages at this time?  He is particularly interested in
working with computer software and hardware companies.  Please send your
replies to: oswal -at- frank -dot- mtsu -dot- edu to prevent cluttering on the net.  If
others are interested, I will be glad to post the replies.

With thanks in advance!
