A question for those in the know!

 Hello everybody, this is my first post and I wonder if you could help me. I'm planning on being a games programmer or designer when I finish Uni. Now I'm not aware of any way of studying to be a games designer (or is there some stuff I should know first?) But obviously to be a programmer I'm going to have to learn some more languages. My question is this: What languages do I need to learn to work in the industry? I'm currently doing a maths degree and have no intention of switching as I feel confident I can teach myself. Any help would be much appreciated. Thankyou.

Best answer I can think of, albeit blunt, can be found at http://bittermanandy.wordpress.com/2008/12/10/the-masonic-handshake/

i'm in the uk. I'm currently learning c++ but i wonder if c# would be more useful as that'd allow me to do xna.
