Hello:

I am a sophomore at Lafayette College and I am interested in knowing
just what languages are used out in the REAL world. I had been under the
impression that Pascal was a big deal but have since had my mind changed
for me.  *I am _not_ saying that Pascal is bad...*  I am in school and I
have no way of knwing what is being used.  I would also like to know
what sort of things are written.  Here, all we do is study data
structures and write useless programs that are designed to show that we
are able to implement what we learned in class. 

I would like any and all responses.  You all would probably want to mail
me instead of cluttering up the net with things that most of you
probably already know.

Thanks,
Paul J. Galvin
