Python is the top programming language in TIOBE and PYPL Index. C and Java closely follow Top-
ranked Python in TIOBE. In PYPL, a gap is wider as top-ranked Python has taken a lead of close to
12% from 2nd ranked Java.

TIOBE: Python has overtaken C at 1st position in oct 2021. Python, C and Java are way ahead of
others in TIOBE Index. C++ is at 4th while C# and Visual Basic .NET are very close to each other at
5th and 6th number. These five have negative trends in the past five years: Java, C, C++, C#, and
PHP. PHP was at 3rd position in Mar 2010 is now at 12th. Positions of Java, C, and C++ have not been
much affected, but their ratings are constantly declining. The rating of Java has declined from 26.49%
in June 2001 to 10.12% in Dec 2021.

PYPL: Acc to PYPL, which publishes separate ranking for five countries, Python is the top language in
all five countries (US, India, Germany, United Kingdom, France). Python has taken a huge lead in
these five countries over the 2nd number of Java, and its shares are even almost double of Java in

PHP is the biggest loser in recent years in PYPL. Its share was over 20% in 2008; now, this fig is only Olympics Medal Table 2020
5.76% in 2021. Java is too declining but not as fast as PHP. Java's contribution was over 31% in 2008,
and still, it holds 18%. In 2004-2009, 50% of the search was of either Java or PHP. List of continents by gdp per capita

TIOBE Index: TIOBE ratings are calculated by counting hits of the most popular search engines. World urban population
Twenty-five search engines are used to calculate the TIOBE index. The TIOBE Programming
Community index is an indicator of the popularity of programming languages. The index started in the
year 2001 and updated once a month.

PYPL Index: The PYPL PopularitY of Programming Language Index is created by analyzing how often
language tutorials are searched on Google. The index is updated once a month.
