TIOBE Programming Community Index for June 2010

June Headline: Google's Go falls out of top 20

Since its release in November 2009 Google's Go was part of the TIOBE top 20. Its initial rise was so phenomenal that it was declared "Programming Language of the Year 2009". After its first, curiosity-driven hype, the language needs to find its place in the programming language landscape now. Some say its multicore support is something that is needed nowadays, others criticize the language for not being mature yet to be adopted by professionals. We will see in the next few months what is going to happen.

Other interesting changes in June are: Java is back at number 1, changing places with C. Objective-C is still rising (climbing from 10 to 9 in one month), and Powershell has entered the top 20.

The TIOBE Programming Community index gives an indication of the popularity of programming languages. The index is updated once a month. The ratings are based on the number of skilled engineers world-wide, courses and third party vendors. The popular search engines Google, MSN, Yahoo!, Wikipedia and YouTube are used to calculate the ratings. Observe that the TIOBE index is not about the best programming language or the language in which most lines of code have been written.

The index can be used to check whether your programming skills are still up to date or to make a strategic decision about what programming language should be adopted when starting to build a new software system. The definition of the TIOBE index can be found here.

Stiu de mult de TIOBE Index.

Luna asta mi s-a parut ciudat ca Powershell a intrat in TOP 20 (mai exact locul 20) si Bourne Shell a inaintat pe locul 25.

Cat despre lupta dintre C si Java, luna trecuta C era pe primul loc, dar luna asta a mai aparut un programator Java In rest totul pare normal.

Mie mi se pare ciudat modul cum calculeaza ei rating-urile. Powershell a ajuns inaintea lui bash pentru ca lumea e mai interesanta sa vada ce e cu el.
