TIOBE Programming Community Index for October 2007

October Headline: Statistical Programming Language "R" in Top 50 for the second Month

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 world-wide availability of skilled engineers, courses and third party vendors. The popular search engines Google, MSN, and Yahoo! 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.

    Delphi 人气一路下滑,难道最终会被淘汰?做桌面程序他可是我的最爱。希望2007版能扭转乾坤。  回复  更多评论

    这个要看具体工作内容了,比如做应用的和做核心开发工资肯定是不一样的  回复  更多评论
