TIOBE Index for October 2021 - Python programming language number 1! - Yoriz - Oct-07-2021
https://www.tiobe.com/tiobe-index/ Wrote:For the first time in more than 20 years we have a new leader of the pack: the Python programming language. The long-standing hegemony of Java and C is over. Python, which started as a simple scripting language, as an alternative to Perl, has become mature. Its ease of learning, its huge amount of libraries, and its widespread use in all kinds of domains, has made it the most popular programming language of today. Congratulations Guido van Rossum! Proficiat! -- Paul Jansen CEO TIOBE Software

I have used Perl a lot in the past, and actually was quite fond of it. The problem was after I stopped using it on a regular basis, I didn't have a clue what my scripts did, except in rare cases where I actually wrote some documentation.
I expected Python would make it. Glad to hear it.
