The last release of Actionscript (AS3), is a powerful object oriented programming language. This means you can create new classes, extend classes, create and implements interfaces, define the type of a variable (number, string, array...), organize your code into packages and much more. AS3 offers a rich set of classes and tools to work with vector graphics, XML, sound (you can read and play mp3 and access ID3 info), net streams and more.
Actionscript is the core behind Flex, if you want to work on a project based on Adobe Flash (which has an swf as output) you definitely should learn and use it!
