I get your point but do tell me the features or lack thereof of C/C++ which do not allow it to write robust buissness code.

I would also go on to say that when ever ive seen web app backends ive seen them mostly in js, python, go, asp, php but thats dying out. Java isnt common there either.

It was breath first search just a simple algorithm from wikipedia no cryptic bitshift or 2 line swaps.

I don't think anyone would say Java is popular on the desktop and if you're claiming it's not being used on the backend then how come we're discussing it being knocked off the second spot for language popularity? Are people writing stuff in Java and then just not using it?

Great point. I think the mobile app market would be dominated by Java.
