Wow, alerted by a few pull requests and then pleasantly surprised to see this here. As tyingq pointed out, this is not a list of "open source" languages, though I don't think it was too off for the OP to add that since indeed most of them are. It's also a bit broader than "programming languages". The list is termed "computer languages". That is the main category and ~75% of the langs, but formats and other things are counted as well (see table below). Even musical notations make an appearance, as I find those relevant to people interested in designing computer languages for music, or visual languages in general. While the focus is on computer languages, I think it's helpful to have a light touch of some of the earlier developments in language in general. So I didn't draw explicit lines, rather the strategy is to keep focus on programming languages with a peripheral view of the bigger picture. type count

As to accuracy, in general, there are ~420,000 cells in my "spreadsheet". My initial target accuracy was ~98% or so. Gathering the cells was a mixture of manual curation, crawlers, simple NLP models, and contributions from the community.This project sadly fell by the wayside. I need to decide whether to 1) abandon it and instead just contribute facts as I find them to the relevant pages on Wikipedia or 2) determine if there's a good reason to build a fact site like this outside Wikipedia and if so get it into gear. Sorry about any inaccuracies and thank you for the feedback (and especially the pull requests!). |
