Flowstone as preparation in the developer world

There is an index regularly evaluating the importance of programming languages (once per month). The TIOBE Index lists all languages in order of use, not complexity, accessibility, versatility, etc.

What surprised me was that the majority of Android-Apps is written in Java (don't confuse this with JavaScript), a language that is prone to security leaks on Windows. However, the great success of the mobile market makes this language being in the lead by far. Following is C, way before C++, which is surprising me as well.

But the absolute kings of the list are the sprinters, those that gain importance faster than every other language. The winner in this category is -tadaa- Ruby, which continously jumps forward on the list, this time by 8 places, and is now rank 10 of the most important languages!

If that wouldn't be an argument for Flowstone already, another well-known 'friend' is also on the list as one of those sprinters. Jumping by insane 16 places it now ranks 12th. It is ...wait for it... Assembly!

So, tell everybody that Flowstone can serve as a career maker!

Add to it the fact that C has been #2 (sometimes #1) for the last 15 years or so - FS really has it all! :mrgreen:

Nice list there. Thanks.

FWIW, I started a blog for VB, just becasue so many people ask what I use for my small Windows tools. It might be useful to hobbyists like myself on Windows...
