Wow - after more than 20 years, Fortran is back in the top 10 of the TIOBE Index.
That is quite surprising for me and it seems for many others.
(The other thing I found surprising is that I learned 7 of the Top 10 languages - that's good enough I would say 😊)
Fortran has dramatically evolved since its inception in 1957 (funny: this language is the same age as my parents!) and is the go to language when it comes to numerical computing. (Probably also because many very powerful libraries already exist in Fortran).
I wonder if this trend continues or if other languages like for example Julia will one day overtake Fortran in this area.
