Forgot one!
More C/C++ programmers than I figured there would be.

I do assembler also. But not in the list
If you vote me down, my score will only get lower

I fear we're outcasts?

As I am also working with Flash Programming nowadays, I work a lot in ActionScript 3 so I also ticked the "None of the Above" box.
Thought I should add it in the comments below the survey, so us Flash guys dont feel left out

That's just wrong! In the mostest wrong way! Maybe the list got inverted?
|
|

Actually, Visual Basic is on the list at #7. VB.NET is #12. And Ruby is #11, #12 a year ago.
Are you sure they used that data?
BTW, I am not a VB programmer, I just got interested in your post.

Where does it say that? And if so, why not list the top fifteen?
|
|
|
|
|
|
I still don't see where they referenced any top ten or twenty list.

The word 'this' in the survey description is a link.

Ah, so it is, not very obvious; no underline, etc.

You realise that list is just the number of times that the language appears in google search? It's not a measure of how much the language is actaully used. For instance, just by saying "C++, C++, C++, C++, C++, C++, C++, C++" the TIODE popularity for c++ increases

|
|
I merely identified the source of the list. I don't think the TIOBE list is actually useful.

There are scary number of C++ developers here, this is making me nervous. I thought they are long gone... and we (C# devs) are the cool guys

Don't know about cool, but when we start talking about being actually useful, nothing beats C++[^]:

I would replace "useful" with "complex" or "massive scale". C# can be used to write useful apps.

I started coding in C# 3 years ago and have not looked back ever since. My productivity has greatly increased. I do not miss C++ at all.

If that fits your needs, by all means go for it. It's, after all, right tool for the job.

Pointless discussion. Just use an appropriate tool for the job in hand.

They are actually getting more. Over christmas I threw Visual Studio off my notebook, along with the rest of the Mickeysoft stuff. And then I got myself a nice free IDE, the Open Watcom C++ compiler and tons of open source libraries.
Ok, the Watcom compiler once was one of the best you could have, but probably has not kept up well after it was not commercial anymore. It probably will eventually have to be replaced, but for now it is a pleasure to use it again.
Farewell Mickeysoft, and thanks for all the fish

Check out clang[^], although (unless you fancy struggling with the hell that is GNU on Windows) you may need to get MSVC back on to get it built.

I just showed a 1920x1200 full screen Mandelbrot renderer to my C# coworkers that allowed you to zoom in using the mouse wheel, and left-click-drag to pan around. Works at 50 frames per second using double precision math so you can zoom in to the point where the whole set would be the size of the orbit of Pluto. Possible due to it being coded in Microsoft's C++AMP and exectuted on a high end AMD graphics card. Whos Cool Now!
