John Z:
Here is the most recent programing language survey, always sure to start a discussion :)

KunJohn:
And I've seen this comparison, a little different though largely similar. Python ranks first with 30.09%, followed by Java with 18.84%, then JavaScript with 8.1%, C# with 7.27%, PHP with 6.08% and C/C++ with 5.86%,

Vortex:
While there is a big propaganda behind the popular scripting languages, the C language is not losing it's importance.

frankie:
That data should be related to the software products distribution.
The big explosion of web applications requires a large use of web programming languages, this leads to the grow of script languages, HTML, javascript, python, etc.
Similar reasons drive the grow of multiplatform languages/frameworks (Azure and similar).
Making 100% the whole, those new programming field apparently seems to occupy the 90%, but this is exactly the growth, more or less, of new applications. Conclusion the use of imperative strong languages, as C/C++, are the same.
Why? Because an OS, time critical programs, high efficiency computation, requires them, C/C++ and even FORTRAN sometimes.  ;)

Anyway the software/hardware development always follows the dog-tail law: when a more powerful hardware is created there always follow a new OS or language or user interface to make it slow!  ;D ;D ;D

TimoVJL:
And how Python is build  ::)
With what language ?
There was Visual C++ for Python 2.7 package VCForPython27
