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?
