The first column contains search terms that I used in Google searches, the second is the number of results, and the third shows the percentage of Perl's popularity.

Both Python and Java have gained on Perl since January 2000. I might consider switching to another language if this trend persists.

Search Term # Results % Perl's Popularity perl programming "january 2000" 10,800 100 perl programming "january 2001" 13,800 100 perl programming "january 2002" 15,000 100 perl programming "january 2003" 18,500 100 perl programming "january 2004" 32,000 100 python programming "january 2000" 3,900 36.11 python programming "january 2001" 6,920 50.14 python programming "january 2002" 8,820 58.80 python programming "january 2003" 10,700 57.83 python programming "january 2004" 25,500 79.68 java programming "january 2000" 33,600 311.11 java programming "january 2001" 37,800 273.91 java programming "january 2002" 45,200 301.33 java programming "january 2003" 55,300 298.91 java programming "january 2004" 102,000 318.75

In reply to Fearing the demise of Perl by Wassercrats

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
    <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
  • Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
  • Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
