Java Vs Php

Post by MarcelaloW »

Hello My question is not a Vs. type of question. I want to know which language is better to learn when you are a PHP programmer, Java or C? I mean from an economic point of view. I already know what Java and C can do and how they are different. But my question is that, when you are a PHP programmer, and want to learn a programming language, which is better, Java or C, from a job point of view?

It isn't correct to compare Java to PHP. Since PHP is a server-side scripting language whereas
Java is a general-purpose language. In other words, PHP is only used as a server-side language
where Java is both for server-side and desktop programming language. Moreover, Java is
compiled and strongly-typed language. On other hand, PHP is a dynamic typed language.
Hence, only for server-side programming, the comparison between Java and PHP makes sense.

java has better tools. PHP is terrible. Great for prototyping but you quickly run into big problems.
