Pascal for the first time surpassed the Delphi/Object Pascal in the TIOBE Community Index for January 2013.

"Other interesting moves of 2012 are the renaissance of C++ (+1.09%, boosted by Microsoft) and Python (+0.96%). On the other hand, C# (-2.57%, due to its late entrance in the mobile market) and Delphi (-0.65%) lost considerable market share."

  1. Linards Liepiņš I strongly disagree with TP7 being pure pascal :)
    Turbo Pascal 7 already supported objects.

  2. I wonder how they tell the difference between discussing Pascal when it refers to Delphi and Pascal when it refers to FreePascal.

    My view is that any increase in popularity with Pascal is good for everyone in the Pascal community, Delphi and Free Pascal alike.

    I think we should be working together more, rather than having this rivalry.
