Most Popular Programming Languages 1955 - 2025

These are the most popular programming languages from 1955 to 2025, based on percentage of jobs. I used AI to get information and sample code for each language. The code is for a simple task--showing 10 consecutive numbers starting from 33, in order to show looping and printing for each language. The APL language may not belong here as it was used for very specific problems and required a custom keyboard and custom set of characters. I only work with PHP, JavaScript, Rust and Dash, so it was nice researching the rest of the development world. In college I started with C++, C#, Java and Assembly, but never used any of them again.
