We are entering the final stretch of the year and it is time to take a look at the most popular programming languages in 2021. Throughout the year many ranking lists are published and each one takes into account different metrics, such as how many times and in which contexts a language has been searched in search engines, including job offers, forums for programmers, training, or free software development.

The term was used for the first time in 1999 and the Internet of Things is currently one of the basic pillars for the 4th Industrial Revolution, along with other technologies, such as Artificial Intelligence, Big Data or Machine Learning.
Conditionals, loops, variables and functions

Remember that an algorithm is a problem solving procedure which consists of a well-defined, ordered, and finite sequence of instructions. To execute all these steps in the order we want, there are different control structures, such as conditionals or loops.
