The Top Programming Languages 2023: Python and SQL are on top, but old languages shouldn’t be forgotten

This year, Python doesn’t just remain No. 1 in our general “Spectrum” ranking—which is weighted to reflect the interests of the typical IEEE member—but it widens its lead. Python’s increased dominance appears to be largely at the expense of smaller, more specialized, languages. It has become the jack-of-all-trades language—and the master of some, such as AI, where powerful and extensive libraries make it ubiquitous. And although Moore’s Law is winding down for high-end computing, low-end microcontrollers are still benefiting from performance gains, which means there’s now enough computing power available on a US $0.70 CPU to make Python a contender in embedded development, despite the overhead of an interpreter. Python also looks to be solidifying its position for the long term: Many children and teens now program their first game or blink their first LED using Python. They can then move seamlessly into more advanced domains, and even get a job, with the same language.

Python Glob Recursive

=> ↺ Python Glob Recursive

The “glob.glob()” method in Python is utilized to determine all the path names by taking the specified pattern and complete path as an argument.

Pandas Display All Columns

=> ↺ Pandas Display All Columns

To display all the columns in Python, the “pandas.set_option()” function takes the “display.max_columns” option and its value as an argument.

Python Simplify Fractions

=> ↺ Python Simplify Fractions

The “Fraction()” method of the “fractions” module, a custom function with the “gcd()” method, is used to simplify the specified fraction into the simplest form.

Python Hashlib SHA256

=> ↺ Python Hashlib SHA256

In Python, the sha256 algorithm is implemented to strings, a list of strings, files, and Pandas DataFrame columns using the hashlib.sha256() constructor method.

Pandas Print All Columns

=> ↺ Pandas Print All Columns

The “df.columns.values” or “df.keys().values.tolist()”, “pandas.set_option()” and “df.dtypes” method prints all columns names, values, and types of DataFrame.
