Agree HTML/XML arn't (clue is in the title Markup Language), SQL is perhaps closer to a programming language (clue in title again).
Perhaps the Turing definition is a bit limited, after all DNA (as in biology) is a programming language, with a DNA sequencer you can program ribosome’s to produce whatever protein you want. Nature adds the yet to be understood 'else if' statements to make you, me and every other living thing!

DNA is Turing complete. You can read more about it here[^]

How's Bash a programming language??

If CSS and things like that count as a language I must change my vote for 31+.
For me, language is language. C#, C++ (if you use many C++ environments, it still counts as 1), Java... I don't even count javascript as a language.
I hope no one see HTML or XML as a programming language.

Think JavaScript does count as does Basic, it has deliberate flow change statements such as 'if' . Its designed for programming whereas HTML is a mark up language, and XML is basically data structures (its in the name!).
i.e. HTML,CSS,XML are more akin to data than a programming language.

Javascript implementations have improved in leaps and bounds of late (due to the AJAX bandwagon no doubt). Might be worth your time reassessing your opinion of it. It can produce quite attractive code.

Why not? It is Turing complete, just like C, Pascal, Java,... and unlike SQL.

it's certainly complicated enough to deserve it!

I was counting things like SQL, HTML, Regular Expressions and Lucene query, which are languages I use in programming, but apparently not programming languages. Although CSS is. According to the accumulated wisdom of Wikipedia. Still, that only took me up to 8, 30 is quite an achievement.

|

if CSS counts, it may be up to 200?

That list isn't really a language list. They have Visual c++ down as a language and that's an IDE.

List the name of programming languages that you are regularly use?my pick is C# and VB.

C#, JavaScript, CSS, XSLT/XPath (on the list)
SQL, HTML, RegEx, Lucene query (not)
|
|
|
|
|
does RegEx, Lucene query count???
actually I only use C# everyday for the last 2 years, if SQL does not count

CSS, Javascript, a server-side language and an SQL dialect and I'm up to 4 before I've even done anything interesting

CSS is a programming language?
Where it seems there are only borderlines, Where others turn and sigh, You shall rise!
|
|
|
|
|
well i only use c++ and am happy with it so i checked 1 !
|
|
|
|
|
Its on the Wikipedia list so it must be true!

Perhaps the markup languages, when considered with their conditional statements and name::value pair syntax can, when combined with various interpreters, be used as programming languages... xml, xslt, xpath, html, xhtml, dhtml. Each can stand on their own for markup/storage and combine for presentation/formatting and advanced magic with c#, ASP.net, vb.net, AJAX, Java, javaScript, etc.
Just my 2 cents. I use about 9 in any given week, but have converted code from several others...

You only really need one, assembly
|
|
|
|
|
I'd settle for one of any turing-complete language (but hopefully not assembly or BF!)
|
|
|
|
|
Hmm, in that case I made a mistake
I voted C#, but I use SQL and CSS. Maybe XPath/XSLT can be considered a programming language too.
