Advent of Code 2025

One of my favorite times of the year has arrived - Advent of Code! I look forward to it every year, and I'm thankful that Eric Wastl has put so much effort into it over the years. Thanks to Gary Grady for the illustrations.

Programming Language Popularity-Part Thirteen

I occasionally compile some statistics on programming language popularity by running a bunch of Google searches to rank programming languages according to the number of results. I wouldn't read too much into these stats, but they are not without value.

This time, I've included the code I use (written in Racket) and the raw data.

I made the following Google searches and summed the results:

"implemented in <lang>"
"written in <lang>"
"developed in <lang>"
"programmed in <lang>"
