Comparative Analysis of Programming Languages Based on Average Code Size

By Methark Press

The graph above presents a comprehensive comparison of programming languages, focusing on the average workload required for coding and the resulting code size to accomplish identical tasks. The analysis encompasses a selection of widely utilized programming languages, including Assembly (ARM x86), C, C++, Java, C#, PHP, Python, and JavaScript.

To ensure an unbiased evaluation, the test codes employed in this analysis have been meticulously stripped of extraneous elements, such as blank lines, bracket line breaks, and comments.

This meticulous approach is intended to eliminate any potential sources of distraction and to offer a clear view of the total code lines required for each language.
