What are the list for top 10 best programming lanaguages in 2020?
The below image shows that the top 3 are python, jave & c++, and the sub-total portions are 60.6%.
The ranking of programming languages can vary based on various factors such as community support, ease of use, performance, availability of libraries, and more. However, based on the popularity and demand in 2020, here is a list of the top 10 programming languages:

- Java
- C++
- C#
- JavaScript
- PHP
- Swift

Python has been consistently gaining popularity due to its simplicity and versatility, making it a top choice for data science, machine learning, and web development. Java remains a popular choice for enterprise applications, and C++ is a popular choice for game development and high-performance applications. C# and JavaScript continue to be popular choices for web development, and PHP remains a popular choice for server-side scripting. Swift is a popular choice for iOS app development, R is widely used for statistical analysis, and Kotlin and TypeScript have been growing in popularity due to their modern features and interoperability with existing codebases.
First of all, python has lots of competency against other program languages. Basically, python is open source basis, so it is free and open library to support math, statistics, graph, and complex algorithm for data science. And we can use python not only data analytics but web/app development, so python will keep the number 1 position over very long time.
Second position are java due to mobile application, so javascript has led web development, but times were changing from web to mobile. Even php & kotlin are fitted in mobile app, but java will get more popular to develop multiple mobile apps than others.
So, if you want to be software engineering career, you need to learn java, c++ or js, etc. or to be data science track, it will be python, R or SQL.
