The nine-year-old programming language Rust is the star of the TIOBE Programming Language Group Index this month. The language Rust rose to quantity 13 from quantity 17, a bounce from 0.93% within the proprietary TIOBE factors system in Might to 1.18% in July. The highest 10 listing of programming languages stayed principally regular, with Go hanging on to its spot at quantity 7 after a dramatic rise final month.
The TIOBE Programming Group Index exhibits tendencies in programming languages based mostly on search engine quantity.
Rust beneficial by the US authorities
TIOBE Software program has been holding a detailed eye on Rust because it has regularly risen by the ranks.
“Gaining 4 positions might seem a small change, but Rust has been ‘the talk of the town’ the last couple of years without making much progress in the TIOBE index,” wrote TIOBE Software program CEO Paul Jansen within the July replace.
Rust was beneficial by the U.S. authorities as a safer different to C or C++ as a result of it’s reminiscence protected, which has helped Rust climb by the ranks of the index. By way of TIOBE’s proprietary factors system, Rust grew 0.29% year-over-year to achieve 1.18%, its highest-ever rating.
“The community is growing, including the number of third party libraries and tools,” Jansen mentioned. He predicted Rust is headed for the highest 10 within the TIOBE Index.

Different adjustments within the TIOBE Index in July
Go stays a programming language to look at within the TIOBE Index, with a bounce from thirteenth place to seventh place year-over-year. C++ gained recognition barely, whereas C misplaced some recognition, however neither change was sufficient to change the 2 languages’ high rankings.
