Python rules the roost, but Cobol gets a pandemic bump
Actor, ALGOL, and Ada (assuming you're sorting alphabetically)
I'm assuming no one has created and Aardvark programming language.

Their rankings are 1. Python 1. Java 1. C 1. C++ 1. JavaScript 1. R 1. Arduino 1. Go They let you re-rank them by re-weighting the sources that they use, so I did: - Google (search): 50 50 (a reasonable indicator of widespread interest) - Google (trends): 50 0 (redundant and probably doctored) - GitHub (active): 50 75 (assuming it means projects that aren't write-only) - GitHub (created): 30 0 (assuming it includes write-only projects) - Stack Overflow: 30 75 (has language lawyers who answer serious questions) - Reddit: 20 5 (mostly write-only blogs) - Hacker News: 20 0 (who cares) - Career Builder: 5 0 (never heard of it) - Twatter: 50 0 (what idiot included this?) - IEEE Explore: 100 10 (doesn't really reflect industrial practice) - IEEE Jobs: 50 10 (too much academia) This yields the following: 1. Python X| 1. Java :confused: 1. C++ 1. JavaScript 1. C (drops to #8 if IEEE stuff is weighted 0 to exclude engineers who happen to write code) 1. C# (might be #1 if CodeProject was included: came in at #23 on their list :wtf:) 1. PHP 1. HTML (not a language, ffs) I still can't believe #1 and #2.

There are metric boatloads o' Java programs out there. I know I've managed to avoid them for the most part. Anything IBM consulting (and probably EDS and the other big shops) touches is likely to end up Java. Python is the one that freaks me out. I know it's getting huge in big data, but yeah. I don't see it as #1 out there. If I had to guess at the list, I'd probably think:
- Java
- JavaScript
- C
- SQL
- C++
- PHP
- C#
With Python/VB/Ruby/COBOL in some order after that.

:thumbsup: Much better than their list. I don't doubt that Java is popular, it's just that it gives me gas. :)
