[seqfan] Survey of the programming languages in the OEIS

[Bob Lyons]

Hello Sequence Fans,

I wrote a shell script that scanned the OEIS entries in my local oeisdata
git repo, in order to find the number of programs for each programming
language in the OEIS.

The following are counts (ordered from largest to smallest) with the names
of the languages in lower case. The count for PARI (i.e., 123512) means
that the script found 123512 occurrences of "(PARI)" in all the PROG
sections of all the entries. The count for Maple (i.e., 57156) means that
the script found 57156 OEIS entries with the MAPLE section. The script
ignores links to programs. Note that the names of the languages are not
always consistent (e.g., (Sage) vs. (SageMath), (Python) vs. (Python3) vs.
(Python 3) vs. (Python 2), (go) vs. (golang), etc.).
