There's been mentions of efficiency. I'm under the impression that for the uses Perl is put to, the efficiency of a loop is sorta irrelevent. If you are doing harddrive/network access, the performance gain of one loop over the other is more of less invisible. Come to think of it, the time for interpretting got to overshadow the performance gain... For running mathematical stuff, wouldn't you use C?
