This index does not offer us which is the best programming language, nor which is most used to chop code. This index, which is updated every month, takes into account the number of searches carried out on search engines such as Google, Bing, Wikipedia, Amazon, YouTube, Yahoo! and Baidu. The number of courses available and the number of engineers available worldwide are also taken into account.
The list of the 10 most popular programming languages is headed, once again, by Python, a programming language that in recent years has experienced considerable growth that has made it the leader, month after month, in this category. In second position, we find C.. C has asked for almost 2 points compared to last year and C++in third position is getting closer to second place, a language that in the last year has gone from fourth to third position, overtaking Java.
In fourth position, as we have mentioned, is Java, a programming language that is equally loved and hated but that offers a multiplatform versatility that very few can boast of. In fifth position is C#, language that have been consolidated in this position. Next, and in sixth position, is javascriptanother popular programming language that has moved up one spot in the last year.
They close the classification of the 10 most popular programming languages Visual Basic which has dropped from position 6 to 7, followed by .SQL who has moved up one position in the ranking, .PHP which currently occupies the ninth position after rising two positions and closes MATLAB in tenth position after having climbed 10 places in the ranking in the last year.
if we have to study a programming languageif we want a safe bet, any of the 5 that heads this classification and that has hardly changed in recent years is a safe bet:
Positions from 10 to 20
Between position 10 and 20 of this Tiobe classification, find programming languages that have begun to make a name for themselves in this field, such as Ruby, Rust, and Swift. This classification of the 20 most popular programming languages is closed by COBOL, a programming language with more than 50 years on the market and of which there are very few programmers as it is so old, which is why they are highly valued economically.
