we extract language rankings from GitHub and Stack Overflow, and combine them for a ranking that attempts to reflect both code (GitHub) and discussion (Stack Overflow) traction. The idea is not to offer a statistically valid representation of current usage, but rather to correlate language discuss...
C# is a strongly typed object-oriented programming language which is used to perform a wide range of backend tasks. It is one of the strong programming languages for the.NETframework. It was specifically developed at building Windows desktop applications and games. It is fast and open-source, ...
Rust isa popular language among developerswho discuss technical challenges on StackOverflow, but it hasn't moved from its spot at 21. As O'Grady notes, Rust has the potential for core infrastructure projects but, like Google-created Go, it seems to be stuck on its current ranking. Go meanwh...
“Not only is [JavaScript] the front-end language of the web, it allows folks to create back-end solutions. If you want to learn one language, JavaScript is great in the early stages of learning how to create full-stack solutions,” Garcia says. Classification: JavaScript is a high-leve...

As you can see, R tanks higher than the median for github projects and quite a lot higher for stackoverflow questions. So R is doing quite well amongst programming languages in general. As a specialized statistics language, a more relevant comparison may come from looking at tags at the stat...

By 1966, much of the modern gene-pool of programming language concepts was well-established. We had Fortran, Algol 60 and Lisp capturing familiar concepts, e.g. stack-allocated local variables, heap-allocated records, if-then-else and iteration, named procedures and functions (including recursion...
If you are looking to learn a new programming language or just curious about the top programing languages of 2014, then you can find a detailed ranking in thisinteractive chartpublished by IEEE spectrum. It synthesizes 12 metrics from 10 sources to arrive at an overall ranking of language popu...
