										<content:encoded><![CDATA[
<p>JavaScript is still the most popular programming language by use in the world, with 65 percent of developers surveyed in JetBrains State of Developer Ecosystem 2022 <a href="https://www.jetbrains.com/lp/devecosystem-2022/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">report</a> having used it in the past 12 months. </p>



<p>Python continued its upward trend, with over half of all developers using it. It has also quickly become a primary programming language for developers, with 32 percent of developers claiming it as a primary language. Only JavaScript has a larger number of primary language users.&nbsp;</p>



<p>TypeScript was the fastest growing language in 2022, and has seen remarkable growth as a language over the past five years, rising from 12 percent usage in 2017 to 34 percent in 2022. As one of the primary alternative forms of JavaScript, it has gained a lot of popularity, especially amongst large-scale JavaScript developers for its project scalability, collaboration, and code maintainability.&nbsp;</p>

<p>As new programming languages like <a href="https://julialang.org/">Julia</a> and others become popular, some of the old guard have seen a decline in usage. In 2022, less developers said they had used HTML/CSS, Java, PHP, and Ruby than the year before. Languages such as SQL, Swift, and Objective-C have stagnated, with similar usage to the previous year.&nbsp;</p>



<p>According to the developers surveyed, Kotlin, C#, and Python are the three favorite programming languages to use, relative to the number of users. On the other end of the spectrum, Perl, Visual Basic, Delphi and C are the least favorite languages to use, with 96 percent of Perl users sharing a dislike of the language.</p>



<p>Developers are most interested in the programming language Go, with 12 percent of respondents planning to adopt or migrate to the language in the next 12 months.&nbsp;</p>



<p>In terms of language usage by platform, Go was the most popular for cloud at 27 percent, followed by Python and C#. For server and infrastructure tasks, Go was again the most popular language, followed by Python and C++.&nbsp;</p>



<p>When discussing the future, developers believe AI/ML is the most promising technology, with blockchain and AR/VR also considered as potentially innovative. Rust was the most promising programming language, followed by Go and Kotlin.&nbsp;</p>

<p>The IEEE Spectrum has released its ninth annual ranking of top programming languages, and Python tops the list. The study also found that employers are increasingly looking for SQL expertise, as well. The ranking is compiled <a href="https://spectrum.ieee.org/top-programming-languages-methods" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">using nine metrics</a> based on information derived from a variety of sources.</p>



<p>While Python topped the list, the variants of C (C, C++, and C#) aggregated would outrank Python “by some margin,” according to the study. Other languages that remain popular include Java and Javascript. SQL alone fell somewhere between the two.</p>



<p>Numerous other studies find the same languages are in high demand. They may be ranked differently, but the mix of Python, Java, all the flavors of C, and more are in the top four or five. For example, DevJobsScanner analyzed more than seven million developer job listings over an eight-month period. <a href="https://www.devjobsscanner.com/blog/top-8-most-demanded-languages-in-2022/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">It found</a> the top programming languages in demand to be Javascript, Python, Java, and C#, followed by PHP, C/C++, Ruby, and Go.</p>

<h3 class="wp-block-heading">SQL as a plus one</h3>



<p>In the IEEE Spectrum study, SQL stood out for its rising popularity. Interestingly, the report noted that employers were not necessarily looking for just SQL coders. While many listings would be for C++ developers or Java experts, the same was not true for SQL. Instead, many employers were looking for programming skills <strong>plus </strong>SQL experience.</p>



<p>That should not be a surprise in the age of cloud. Modern apps are now composites that bring together numerous elements. Many services and application elements are exposed as microservices or accessible via APIs. Businesses end up with front ends, back ends, cloud and on-premises databases, and more, making up most applications.</p>



<p>In such a scenario, the dominant database technology is still SQL-based. Hence, the need for expertise in SQL. Industry experts <a href="https://www.datamation.com/big-data/current-database-trends/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">have noted</a>: “It’s more or less acknowledged that SQL will remain a cornerstone of DBMS for the foreseeable future. Even newer machine learning-based offerings, such as MindDB’s ML framework and AWS Redshift ML, have incorporated SQL as the default querying language.”</p>

<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Why Python remains so popular</h3>



<p>Python has many benefits for the real-time and data analytics market. One common strength frequently cited is Python&#8217;s ecosystem for analytics, AI, and ML. As we&#8217;ve written about <a href="https://www.rtinsights.com/why-python-is-best-for-ai-ml-and-deep-learning/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">in the past</a>, “the Python library provides base-level items, so developers do not have to write code from scratch every time.”</p>



<p>Machine learning requires continuous data processing, and Python libraries allow businesses to access, process, and transform data. It offers some of the most extensive libraries available for AI and ML, including:</p>



<ul class="wp-block-list"><li>Scikit-learn to handle basic ML algorithms such as clustering, logistic and linear regression, regression, and classification.</li><li>Pandas are used for advanced structure and data analysis. It allows you to merge and filter data and collect data from other external sources (such as Excel).</li><li>Keras is used for deep learning. In addition to the computer’s CPU, it also uses the GPU, allowing rapid calculations and prototyping.</li><li>TensorFlow is used to manipulate deep understanding by building, training, and using artificial neural networks using substantial data sets.</li></ul>



<h3 class="wp-block-heading">A final word</h3>



<p>Studies that try to rank the top programming languages are obviously slanted based on the business objectives and the platforms a business already uses. Many “lower” ranking languages like R, Golang, or others might not be a good match for one survey audience. But they might be ideal for data scientists, data engineers, and data analytics experts.</p>
