Top programming languages
For quite some time I was wondering which programming languages were the most hated on the web, so I did this simple test: I googled "hate [language name]" and here are the results:
| 501 | ruby |
| 733 | c++ |
| 1260 | python |
| 9350 | javascript |
| 12100 | php |
| 13200 | perl |
| 21900 | java |
| 50900 | c |
You are free to deduce whatever you want from those results (I won't say I was not surprised to see C, java and perl in the top 3…)
I then asked myself what was the ratio of existing projects in a language and the number h of results to the previous query. For each language, p is the number of projects using that language on SourceForge.
Let C the repulsion coeffiction of the language, C = h / p. The results are somehow interesting:
| 0.076 | c++ |
| 0.362 | python |
| 0.942 | ruby |
| 1.150 | php |
| 1.533 | java |
| 4.067 | perl |
| 5.276 | c |
| 6.216 | javascript |
Surprise ! C, Java and Perl are still in the top 4, but JS is now first. Another surprise is C++, I thought it would be worse than that…

Et encore, ce n'est rien. Cherche "love ruby"…
Dis, ça me donne une idée. On pourrait créer un langage qui porte un de ces noms : http://www.google.fr/trends/hottrends?sa=X
