Are you like, not a very good programmer? I know at least as many languages as listed here, have worked in many of them, and what I find in modern times is that a few weeks in a language is more than enough to do real work. Shit, like half of programming languages are just based on whether the creator of said language likes semi-colons or not.
Yeah, if you think being able to program in python, 3 variants of C, and the assembly language they teach you in school is unrealistic, you're probably just a shit programmer.
if I ever entered the job market I'd list things like Pascal, Logo, Basic, 6502 assembly ... so shes doing better than me at least.
... No one actually cares if you have 2-5 years of experience in the specific language. I've actually never had prior experience in the primary language of any role I've been hired for. At most I just tell the interviewer that my experience with the language is 1 week of reading an online intro guide, and then show my ability to just code in the interview. If I can't make something compilable yet, most interviews are happy with pseudocode. But it really should only take a few days of prep to be able to make something compilable in any language.
A programmer needs enough base knowledge on what they're doing, but that's mostly universal. Languages you can just pick up based on what seems best suited for the momentary need.
