The top ten programming language statistics from Digital News & Review,
March 1,1993, p. 9, as supplied by karl@grebyn.com, do not total 100%.

The reader is left wondering what the numbers acutally mean.  For example,
4GLS, C++, and Pascal all have the same statistic which varies very little
from the FORTRAN, C, and COBOL statistics.

Please clarify.  Thank you.
