This was my very non-scientific way of trying to decide between Nim & Zig as a new systems language to experiment with. The plan was to choose the one trending the most.<p>I added Rust and Dart as established comparisons. I also added the keyword "array" to filter out and non programming language searches. I tried the alternative filter word "string" and obtained similar results.<p>Extending the time window to 5 years still didn't show either one to be trending over the other.<p>Curiously, I did try Stack Overflow's trend page but zig and nim tags were missing.<p>There's no obvious winner (IMHO).
Added python array for a sense of scale <a href="https://trends.google.com/trends/explore?q=zig%20array,nim%20array,dart%20array,rust%20array,python%20array#TIMESERIES" rel="nofollow">https://trends.google.com/trends/explore?q=zig%20array,nim%2...</a>
I would suggest adding a bunch of them as such:<p>zig array + zig variable + zig for loop + zig programming language<p>Also be careful with the break in the data in 2022.
