The third most used language is Python. > (In previous 3 years, D had between 2-4 entries for the first question, > so not much change, despite total contestant counts increasing quite > dramatically) But a person from Japan has used D to be among the top ten, this is good: http://www.go-hero.net/jam/11/name/hos.lyric The first, second and third persons are using the most used language, second most used and third most used (C++, Java, Python) :-) > Obviously you can't draw too many conclusions from this alone, but more > data is always better.
