TIOBE September programming language rankings are out! Python reaches the top, Kotlin makes a strong comeback

01 TIOBE: Python reaches the top and Kotlin makes a strong comeback

TIOBE September programming language rankings released: Python reaches the top, and Kotlin makes a strong comeback.

TIOBE officially announced the programming language rankings for September 2023. The list shows that Python still ranks first, accounting for 14.16%; C language ranks second, accounting for 11.27%; C++ ranks third, accounting for 10.65% Java ranked fourth, accounting for 9.49%; C# ranked fifth, accounting for 7.31%; JavaScript ranked sixth, accounting for 3.3%; Kotlin squeezed into the top 20, accounting for 0.9%.

JetBrains officially released the Kotlin language for the first time in 2016. In 2017, Google announced that it would provide "first-class support" for the Android version of Kotlin.

At that time, because Java (the traditional language of Android) was considered too verbose, Kotlin's popularity rose to 1% and ranked in the top 20 of the TIOBE index at that time. Now Kotlin has returned to the list of 20, with some It has certain prospects, and TIOBE CEO Paul Jansen previously claimed that Kotlin is “another promising language.”

Regarding Kotlin's entry into the Top 20 again, TIOBE CEO Paul Jansen believes that Kotlin's rise may be more powerful this time because its user base is no longer the size it was in 2017 after these six years.

【illustrate】:

The TIOBE Programming Language Community Ranking is an indicator of programming language trends, updated monthly, based on the number of technical engineers, courses, and third-party vendors worldwide. Please note that this ranking only reflects the popularity of a certain programming language, and does not indicate whether a programming language is good or not, or how much code is written in a language.

This ranking can be used to examine whether your programming skills are keeping pace with the times, and can also be used as a basis for language selection when developing new systems.
