Hey guys, I just saw this from the IEEE:
https://spectrum.ieee.org/top-programmin...uages-2022
Looks like Python is #1 and C, plus two variants of C, are #2, #3, and #4. Okay, we sort of expected that much.
QuickBasic per se does not make the list, but Visual Basic strangely enough does. So that's something. The other interesting point, Visual Basic is more popular than some real stalwarts, like Fortran, Pascal, Lisp, Prolog, and Cobol.
That's something, at least. I find it hard to believe that today, VB is more popular than the various flavors of QuickBasic, but some of you probably know better than me about such things.
