Maybe it's because I'm a pleb or because I was first taught Java, but, I only really know Object Oriented Programming patterns, what are the other types, uses, etc?

Following as I'm also curious

Never had OOP at school. My biggest problem nowadays....

Hmm, dunno if the name is the same in english but procedural programming and functionnal programming :)

@RodrigoF never did it at school too.. but it really helped me when i finally decided to learn it myself and ask question to other dev

@RodrigoF , @Jakuho, if not oop, then what? And could you explain it?

My bad. Tought OOP ment object oriented programing

It's like you write a script, function and everything but without any object. Hey if you submit this form, execute this script :)
The script is executed line by line

@Jakuho huh, weird, and what languages are like that

@GhostFish you can try Scala to easy into it from Java (you can mix them) and Python.

I'm sure there are others but personally I hate functional programming so I haven't looked them up.

Haskell is a pure functional language (I think), but it's very maths-based and quite complex. If you feel like taking a leap from Java and the OO methodology, then it mightn't be a bad idea - but it's not easy to change your mindset

@antonis179 , @dockerdan, thanks for the suggestions
