Top Programming Languages with Niche Languages

Always, Java remains one of the most dominant languages in use and also some-more languages are still remains solidly in top tier of languages list like JavaScript, C++, C#, PHP, Python.Other-than usual languages, sometimes more niche languages also needed, such as R and Go. Here are the some Index ranks programming languages monthly based on web searches, some raw data, and etc..,

TIOBE: TIOBE Index for September 2014

TIOBE made the measurement by using the web searches across a number of search engines. Moreover 25 search engines are used to calculate the TIOBE index. The selected search engines are the 25 highest ranked websites of Alexa. Popular search engines such as Google, Bing, Yahoo!, Wikipedia, Amazon, YouTube and Baidu are used to calculate the ratings. It is important to note that the TIOBE index is not about the best programming language or the language in which most lines of code have been written.

PYPL: PopularitY of Programming Language

PYPL(PopularitY of Programming Language) also ranked the programming languages based on web searches. Mostly it looks at raw data comes from Google Trends i.e Google searches for tutorials about a language, rather than just any search for a language name. PYPL tells that Java is still the number one language, since 2004, with a 27.2% share, slightly got increased from last year(2013). PHP and Python are in respective 2nd and 3rd places with more than 10% share. C++ is in #5 place on the PYPL list, same as it was last year, with the smaller share of 8.8% share. Anyhow C++ is losing its measurement in 2004.

Because of the share loss in C++, C# went one step upwards to #4.

RedMonk :

RedMonk takes a different approach to make the ranking table i.e RedMonk looks at the combination of GitHub data and Stack Exchange popularity. From June onwards, Java and JavaScript were tied at #1 position.Respectively PHP, Python, C# are in #3, #4, #5th positions. For 6th position C++ is tied with Ruby. The RedMonk index haven’t changed much at the top of the list. Sometime more niche languages also in best list, however, are showing strong growth in this measure. R has shown gains in the last four rankings, driven mainly by growth in GitHub activity, and is currently ranked #13 (21st on TIOBE, not ranked by PYPL). Go is also on the way up, currently at #21 on Redmonk (#38 on TIOBE) and is expected to crack the top 20 soon.

Eclipse and Ubuntu working together - To Solve the Eclipse issue under Ubuntu.

Eclipse platform team worked together with the Canonical Ubuntu team to solve the broken menu issue of Eclipse under Ubuntu. This fix is available from Ubuntu 14.04.

It just to be the case that the menu of the Eclipse IDE did not work out of the box under Ubuntu and you had to use several tricks to make Eclipse work. This was relatively hard to discover for new users of Eclipse under Ubuntu and increased the barrier in using Eclipse.

Eclipse platform team reached out to the Ubuntu team and William Hua from Canonical did solve this issue. William and the whole team from Ubuntu for that effort, they could also have pushed the issue back to the Eclipse side. But they went through the extra effort to solve it on their Ubuntu side. Kudos to them!

Just ping  Ubuntu Launchpad bug report for Eclipse menu Issue.
