Yeah I'll do it no sweat, email me privately if this isn't filled soon.

Okay, first off, let me kill any interest you may have. This has to be done in PHP because that is what drupal uses, which is the CMS running plug.org. I realize a lot of you dislike PHP, hence this disclaimer right off the top. With that out of the way here is what we need. In the member profiles section members can insert the programming languages they know. This is a text field, so the data is pretty messy. Each record in the database has the language names seperated by ',' or a '\n'. However, several users have added comments and other chars. Also, the capitilization for each language name is not consistent. Here is some sample input: ############################# Python, C, Sh, Perl, Scheme (for brain exercise), Prolog (for brain exercise), C++ (under duress), Java (under duress), PHP (under duress) C, Scheme, Common Lisp, Python, Java, Digital Mars D, C++, OCaml, F#, Smalltalk, Perl Ruby, Java, Perl, C, C++ \nPascal \nJava PHP, actionscript, javascript Perl, C, bash C, PHP, Javascript, Java, Bash PHP, Perl, Pascal, C, tcsh perl, php, c, JavaScript, c++, java, python C, JAVA, C++, PHP C, C++, Java, PHP, Python, Perl??, and I'd like to learn Ruby soon. \nRGP III Rails ############################# The mission: Count the acutal language names (if at all possible) and output it numerically sorted based on the count, example output (not accurate): count - language ---------------- 34 - Java 15 - C 10 - C++ 13 - Perl 1 - PHP It would be okay to start with a known good list of languages to use as a filter if you so desire. It doesn't have to be 100% accurate. If we miss one here or there it is not a big deal. Also, we really only need a subset of perhaps the most popular languages to use as a filter. This will end up in a new stats screen that shows the top 10 most popular languages PLUG members use. Anyone interested? If so feel free to get with me if you need any details. If no one is interested then it simply won't get done. I know this is kind of a pain, but I'm really hoping someone can whip out the code in 30 minutes and feel like they have made their contribution to PLUG for the year.
