I think you could have skipped the word ‘only’ here. Those 3 you mention are a handful… this saying comes to mind “easy to learn but difficult to master” :)

> I have a friend who self-taught 5 languages in he first year.

Total BS. It’s been mentioned before but knowing the syntax doesn’t mean you know the ins and outs of a language.

I think I started studying computer science in 2008. Since then I got comfortable enough with Java, C#, PHP, ActionScript3, and JavaScript, the last 3 self-taught. Learned the basics of a bunch of others which I already forgot how to use like Assembly, C and weird languages like Haskell.
