I am a statistician, currently working in the public health sector, in France.
A few words about the languages I currently use or have used in the past:
* I have used C for years, first with Turbo C++ around 1997, then with GCC, and lately a bit with Visual C++ and Pelles C. However, I never had the motivation to do more than relatively short programs with it, so I still consider myself a beginner. Today I mainly use it for functions I need to speed up in other (interpreted) languages and for small personnal projects.
Line 23:
* I use Stata since august 2017, and I use it a lot.
* I have used Excel since Office 97, but I really started with VBA in 2014, almost exclusively within Excel.
* Among the other languages I have used to some extent, the most notable are MATLAB and Scilab (my main languages in University for numerical analysis courses), and x86 assembly, for which I still have a reading knowledge (to check compiler output). My first programming language on a computer was QBasic, in 1996, followed shortly by Turbo C++ and Delphi.▼
* Other language I have used quite a bit

* Languages I ''really'' don't like: C++ (TMP is insane), APL and J (unreadable).
* Languages I wish I could use a bit, or more: JavaScript (useful in my domain for data visualization), Gauss (for econometrics), Troll (used for economic models), COBOL & PL/I (mainly to make my own opinion as they have been much decried).
▲Other language I have used quite a bit : Octave, Turbo Pascal / Free Pascal, Basic (several flavors : QB, VB, Real Basic, Power Basic, True Basic), Ada, Common Lisp, Scheme, Forth (several variants including HP48 RPN and WinForth, and one that I coded in Java for a CS project), GAP, Maxima, Maple, Mathematica, Ruby, and the macro language of Lotus 1-2-3. And just a sip of MuPad, Awk, Tcl, Perl, JavaScript, VB.NET, C#, F#, JCL (the bare minimum to run some Fortran and SAS tasks on an IBM mainframe), J (yuck!).
On Rosetta Code, I am using this account since 2017-08-07. I have previously used the following accounts:
