Perl back in TIOBE top ten

Just noticed (via german-lnguage publisher heise) that Perl is on rank 9 in TIOBE's January 2015 list.
Still not #1, but certainly not dead :-)

Update: I would have included a link to TIOBE if they had permalinks to specific months.

Replies are listed 'Best First'.

    Yes, it's been back for some months already.

    Moreover, according to TIOBE, Perl was #3 in the "biggest mover" competition with +1.33%.

    Only 3 languages have a 20+ years of history of being in the top 10: Perl, C and C++.

    A program should be light and agile, its subroutines connected like a string of pearls. The spirit and intent of the program should be retained throughout. There should be neither too little or too much, neither needless loops nor useless variables, neither lack of structure nor overwhelming rigidity." - The Tao of Programming, 4.1 - Geoffrey James
