I'm not a programmer. I'm wondering why there are so many programming languages. Isn't it better to have one that is based on logic that can be a universal programming language?

Moving from a 2nd generation language (RPG/COBOL) to 3rd generation languages like VB and C# should have been easy… but I’ve struggled. At least I never had to patch boards though.

At some point it’s just syntax. And I think C# is tight and terse, learn it if you have the chance.
