L.S., From the TIOBE web site[0]: -----✂---- TIOBE Programming Community Index for June 2012 June Headline: Haskell is rapidly approaching the top 20 Last month we asked ourselves the question what language could become the next big new programming language. We suggested several candidates such as Scala, Erlang and Clojure. Clearly, the new thing was expected to come from the functional programming field. A functional language not explicitly mentioned was Haskell. And this month it was Haskell that jumped from #35 to #25. Looking at the TIOBE trend graph of Haskell (starting in 2003) it shows a constant rise, with peaks in 2006, 2010 and now in 2012. This certainly sounds promising. -----✂---- Regards, Henk-Jan van Tuyl [0] http://www.tiobe.com/index.php/content/paperinfo/tpci/index.html -- http://Van.Tuyl.eu/ http://members.chello.nl/hjgtuyl/tourdemonad.html Haskell programming --
