Today, the Codeforge website publishes the June 2015 "most common programming languages" list. This list clearly reflects the worldwide popularity of a variety of programming languages and provides a reference for all professionals involved in software and hardware development as well as other industry professionals. What needs to be explained is that this list of statistics, all from the site of millions of registered users of the actual access data, with very high authenticity and real-time.
As can be seen from the above figure, C + + in the proportion of more than One-fourth, topped the list, reached 27.7%. C + + is efficient, and has a lot of mature network communication library, is widely used in game development, scientific Computing, network software, distributed applications, operating systems, drivers, mobile devices, embedded systems and education and research, is the most common programming language. The top of the election can be said to be deserved.
Matlab in the proportion of 20.9%, ranked second. As a preferred simulation language for universities, institutes and enterprises engaged in simulation research, MATLAB is widely used in many applications including signal and image processing, communication, control system design, test and measurement, financial modeling and analysis and computational biology because of its powerful and easy-to-use features.
The third is C, which accounts for 19%. C language not only has the characteristics of high-level language, but also has the characteristics of assembly language, its wide range of applications, almost can be used in any field of program development. At present, C language is commonly used in application software development, low-level network program development, system software and graphics processing software development, digital computing, embedded development, game software development and other fields.
Fourth in the list is Java, accounting for 15.05%. Java has excellent versatility, efficiency, platform portability and security, is widely used in personal computers, data centers, game consoles, science supercomputers, mobile phones and Internet development and other fields.
The above four languages, accounting for 82.65% of the total, are currently the world's most commonly used four programming languages. followed by C#,VB,PHP,DELPHI,ASP/ASPX,VERILOG,VHDL and other languages, due to the advantages in their respective areas of expertise, there are a certain size of the technical staff in use, accounting for 1%-3%, respectively.
To give a more comprehensive picture of how common a variety of programming languages are, we've also listed some programming languages that account for less than 1%. As can be seen from the diagram, many professional and strong programming languages, although the scope of use is limited, but indispensable. For example, ASM assembly language, due to its hardware operation and control of the high efficiency, there are still many hardware engineers in the choice of use to improve the efficiency of the system. and JAVASCRIPT,HTML/CSS as the Web front-end development irreplaceable language, but also the front-end designer's work tool.
