Over the past decade, there has been a growing interest in software programming, also known as coding. Today, more and more people are asking questions about the top programming languages and where to learn them. This video explores answers to these questions and more.

Many languages are relevant in a host of applications in web, mobile, enterprise, and more. The IEEE Spectrum developed an app in collaboration with Nick Diakopoulous, a data journalist, that weighs and combines 11 metrics sourced from 11 websites to rank the popularity of programming languages. Python ranked first in the 2020 ranking. This object-oriented programming language retained its position from previous years. Python, Java, C, C++, JavaScript, and R are also amongst the top 10 most popular languages.

Besides a passion for solving problems with code, many people consider a coding career because it is financially rewarding. Today, programmers are some of the best paid IT professionals the world over, according to CompTIA. For example, full-stack developers earn a wage of $113,011 US dollars annually, on average.

These reasons, in addition to the increasing demand for IT experts, make software programming an attractive and potentially rewarding career option.
