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. -- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Computers are like air conditioners.
