G+_Jayunderwood Kent Posted May 16, 2014 Share Posted May 16, 2014 Rumors in the google plus community is the next language that code 101 will be display is Perl. Now Perl pronounced pearl is a difficult language to master. This is because it has symbols not easily found in most language. People often say that when they code in perl and leave the language for a few months. And when they eventually return and try to read the code they wrote they no longer understand the symbols representing the code. One person joked that you need a manual just to decode your code. what do you think any perl lovers? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_L I Posted May 17, 2014 Share Posted May 17, 2014 I learned a bit of Perl way back. Forgotten it all. It's so arcane lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Dan Sarauer (N3m1sys) Posted May 20, 2014 Share Posted May 20, 2014 Perl was one of the first languages I learned, and still find it useful in some instances. It may be different for others, but I find that once I learn the nuances of a language it is not that difficult to pick up again even after a long hiatus.

G+_abby Sand Posted May 21, 2014 Share Posted May 21, 2014 perl is always been compared to python. But everyone says that python is more cleaner and perl is obtuse because of its symbols Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
