Kindly suggest a script language to use and maybe to difficult to learn.Johan, I have tried perl but I find it too unclear for my taste. I like Python. It is simple and direct.
This come to mind - phyton - perl - ???
The trick with python is to understand it's level-structure using whitespace.
When writing an IF, for instance, you would write something like:
if a == 5: statement 1 statement 2
statement 3
Statements 1 and 2 will be performed when a = 5, statement 3 is outside of the if-clause. Python is not difficult to learn and has many options. I have written a complete program to maintain a members-database, create reports etc in python, where the data are stored in MySQL.
You can have a look at http://www.python.org/doc/2.3.2/ or http://www.python.org/doc/2.2.3/ (depending on your python version) for more information.
Walt Disney changed to python programming for its cartoon-movies because of the speed one can develop in python.
Good luck in making your choice. Paul
