i have no idea what language is used most of the time, but my guess is (as noted above) C/C++.
Please, there is no such language as C/C++; there are two languages C and C++. C++ and Java have more in common than C and C++ and you don't
hear of people talking about C++/Java as if they were the same lanugage.
ok, i was not as accurate as necessary. you are completely right, but i think for a rough (very rough) classification the term C/C++ is correct.
i think as long as C is viewed as a subset of the language C++ (or C++ as an "OO extension of C"), the term is not as wrong as "C++/java". and learning C first, and then C++ is IMHO the best way. because learning C++ without understanding the basics (hear C) does not make sense.
what i forgot in my last mail: the linux doc project has many guides about programming. e.g. shell scripting, kernel hacking, and much more. the link is http://www.tldp.org/
