For the first time, in TIOBE’s index, Swift has entered in the top 10 list. Swift was launched 3 years ago for replacing iOS development language Objective-C. However, TIOBE index predicts that Swift isn’t expected to rise much further as its use is limited to Apple’s ecosystem.

Let’s take a look at the top 21-50 programming languages:
