World programming language ranking in January 2022

2022 year 01 World programming language rankings in October

2022 year 1 month TIOBE Index

January title ：2021 year Python programing language

Python Won the prestigious TIOBE Programming language Award . Congratulations on ！ This is the second time in a row . The award goes to the programming language that has achieved the highest audience growth in a year .C# For the first time in history , but Python Last month, it exceeded C#.

Python stay 2021 At the beginning of the year TIOBE Ranked... In the index 3 position , And will Java and C Left behind , Become TIOBE The first place in the index . but Python The popularity of is more than that . It is currently ahead of other companies 1% above .Java stay 2001 Year record 26.49% The historical record of ratings is still far away , but Python Has become the de facto standard programming language in many fields . There's no sign Python Our journey to victory will soon stop .

Python Are there any real competitors ？ Are there any new and shiny languages that might compete in the future ？ If we look at the promising languages of the past few years , We will be in 2021 The following changes were seen in ：Swift from #13 To #10, from #14 To #13,Rust from #26 To #26,Julia from #23 To #28,Kotlin from #40 To #29,Dart from #25 To #37,TypeScript from #42 To #49. therefore , except Swift and Go outside , We don't expect any new languages to come soon before 5 Even before 3 name .

TIOBE The programming community index is an indicator of the popularity of programming languages . The index is updated monthly . The rating is based on global skilled engineers , Number of courses and third party suppliers . Popular search engines , Such as Google , Bing Ying , Yahoo , Wikipedia , Amazon ,YouTube And Baidu are used to calculate ratings . The important thing is to pay attention ,TIOBE The index is not about first-class Programming language or writing The language of most lines of code .

This index can be used to check if your programming skills are still up to date , Or make a strategic decision about which programming language to use when starting to build a new software system .

Here you are 2 Important remarks ：

1. In the table above "Visual Basic" and "（Visual） Basic" There are differences between . until 2010 year ,"（Visual）Basic" refer to Basic All possible dialects , Include Visual Basic. After a discussion , It was decided that "（Visual）Basic" Split into all dialects , Such as Visual Basic .NET,Classic Visual Basic,PureBasic and Small Basic, Just a few examples. . because Visual Basic .NET Has become Visual Basic The main implementation of , It is now called "Visual Basic".
2. programing language SQL It's been a long time since TIOBE In the index . stay 2018 year , It was pointed out that SQL Turing is complete . From that moment on ,SQL Namely TIOBE Part of index . therefore , Although the language is very old , But its history in the index is very short .
