It's not easy to differentiate the capabilities of languages independent
of a given task. Some of the things I like about perl is that it "does
what I want it to". That is things the syntax makes sense to me. Another
key feature is the thousands of already written libraries that are available
so you don't have to reinvent the wheel, or directed-graphs for that matter.

Yes.
