necessity of learning java coding

[arun gk]

Respected members,

I am a Postgraduate with 4+ years of experience in Mechanical Software such Ansys, Abaqus, Hypermesh etc.
Recently I got a job offer from a fintech company specialized in online payments.
Only thing they asked me to do is to learn Coding (Java, SQL etc.)

My Question is,

In spite of knowing the above mentioned basic mechanical Software, will learning Java help me to shine in Software Development field ?.

Kindly do reply for this mail.

Well, that's not really a deal.II-related question, but I'll answer it anyway:
In the financial service, everything is Java. So if that's where you want to
work, yes, learning and knowing Java is a large plus.

It's just like in data sciences you need to know R. And in computational
science you need to know C++. Different fields different traditions.

As a general rule, speaking many programming languages also makes you a better
programmer.

Best
W.
