Hi, my name is Andy Schmidt and I stumbled across this website as I started my quest for the best programming language. I am only in college and I am trying to learn as many languages as I can. I hope haskell will be the one I stick with.
I'm not sure what your curriculum is, but take a undergrad and grad course in programming languages. They are usually called something like Introduction to Programming Languages, Fundamentals of Programming Languages, etc. You probably won't learn new languages to the extent of being an expert, but you will learn a ton about them.
Usually, you just learn Scheme in these courses (according to my limited experience with 4 or 5 universities). But you learn how a language is put together, making learning a new one a couple days' task. Cheers, Chris
