New Poll: ActionScript is now among the most popular languages. Which of these other languages do you use the most?

2009-03-16T14:34:18Z

Recently O'Reilly's quarterly State of the Computer Book Market analysis - Part IV, Languages - was released.

If book sales are any indication, ActionScript is now among the most popular languages. So, with our new poll question we would like to know which other language you use the most. I realize that you may use many of the languages on our list, so please leave comments as well. To take part in our poll, please click here.

I think the way this poll is setup will skew the actual usage. I often find myself coding not only in actionscript but in php and sql at the same time. A better way to capture the actual usage might be to allow the user to rate their usage per language.

Just my opinion.

ColdFusion. It really should be on the list since so many Flex/AS developers use CF as their back end (AS and CFML are, both, Adobe products, after all)

Outside of ActionScript, I use Processing, followed by SQL and then C#

Nils Kollandsrud: 4D? Didn't even realize that was still around--my first silicon valley gig was at a place that had a sales system built on 4D. I don't think it was even a true RDBMS at that point.

I'll also echo Keith Craigo's point; I think that it's much more interesting to know what languages people are using in combination. But that's probably a longer poll.

In addition to Actionscript, I use ObjectiveC, SQL (including SQLite), Java and PHP (php less and less).

Books sale could also show how difficult a language / technologie is to learn...

This said, C# that I discovered just recently is really great!
