PPI: Software Engineering Online Programming and Platform Index
The Tiobe Programming Community Index has, for a number of years, rated
programming languages based on the number of queries returned with the
search query " programming".
Tiobe defines a language as being Turing complete.
As a consequence, HTML and XML are not considered programming languages.
Furthermore, this skews their results. Software Engineering Online
is starting the PPI - Programming and Platform Index. Nothing is perfect.
However, our index takes into account the fact that people program
in both platforms AND in programming languages. It also takes into
account that HTML and XHTML are used to deliver websites in
the Internet, the largest information system in the world.
We acknowledge our scheme will not pick up, as an example,
"PHP and JavaScript Programming" for PHP.
By July 1, we will have a weekly index using a weighted
average of Google, Yahoo and MSN. This week's results are:
