Either one is good. Learn them both at least superficially. Tinker and play 
with them and see which one is right for you.

Perl's big advantage (over C) is that you can code twice as fast. The code
run twice as slow, but that is another issue.

And, if you are a sloppy programmer, Perl is truly a "write only"
language.  It becomes impossible to maintain.

I personally use Top Down that I learned with Pascal and Modula 2.
My Perl programs are easy to maintain.  Some Perl scripts I
have looked at, I just have to shake my head.  What in the world
is going on.  There is no enforcement of good programing
practices in Perl.
