The TIOBE Index for December 2020 shows C retaining the top spot while Java, Python, C++, and C# follow, highlights rapid growth for Python and several emerging languages, and presents detailed charts of top‑10 trends, other rankings, historical data, and annual award histories.
TIOBE released its December 2020 programming language ranking, with C remaining number one, followed by Java, Python, C++, and C# in the top five.
The upcoming annual TIOBE award will recognize the fastest‑growing language of 2020; Python leads with a 1.9% increase, followed by C++ (0.71%) and Groovy (0.69%), making it highly likely that Python will claim its fourth annual title.
Five high‑potential languages also moved up: Rust rose from 25th to 21st, Julia from 30th to 26th, Dart from 27th to 31st, Kotlin slipped from 36th to 40th, and TypeScript improved from 43rd to 42nd.
