Seen this link in another forum, figured I'd share...not sure how accurate it is though... http://www.tiobe.com/index.php/content/paperinfo/tpci/index.html[^] Seems C# would have been a poor choice as it seems to be falling in popularity. :P Thankfully C/C++ and PHP are relatively high. :)

That graph actually seems to say that the trend is for C# to increase, PHP to level off, and C and C++ to continue to decline.

Um...I think you're reading that backwards, not that I take these things in any way seriously but the graph shows pretty much the opposite of what you think about c# and c++. :)

Haha...I think I did read that thing wrong... Although I don't think PHP will level off...it's a newbie language and makes writing applications for the Internet so easy anyone can do it... I can throw marbles at the keyboard and PHP will run and something will be output to the screen. :P For that reason, it will always attract new people, whereas Ruby, Python, C#, etc...have a much smaller target audience. If anything PHP might loose the occasional professional to one of those langauges as they further develop their programming skills. Seriously, PHP ain't going anywhere and I can't see it leveling off...unfortunately this popularity also means I compete for jobs with people who also read a book once for PHP and are now experts in AJAX/MySQL/PHP so the wages are really low. :P

I did read it totally backwards... I didn't look at any charts just that table...and the little red arrow pointing down told me it declined...how it declined I didn't bother reading cause I simply wasn't interested. :P Thank you for bringing this to light though, so at least I don't make a fool of myself on any other forums today. :P

Seems like someone posted this crap about a month or two ago. Debates have gone on about it's accuracy and I really don't buy anything that site says. :|

Powershell - Current share = 0.436% , a rise of 0.44% - so Powershell previously had -0.004%...;P Maybe their maths needs more work...

Wow...that was embarrassing. Maybe you should review math and percentages. If their current share is 0.436% and it rose 0.44% their previous market share was about 0.434% (prev. share x 1.0044 = 0.436)

Hmm. Interesting. Though where I live I see very few job postings on C++ and almost none on C. I see quite a lot on C# and Java though.

The rise and fall indicators seem to only relate to the previous month as the survey is done monthly. If you look at the long term trend either on the graph below or by clicking on the links for each language, you'll see that c and c++ are falling whereas c# is rising
