you can tell perl is evil, because there's more contests to make obfuscated perl code than anything else

How on earth could that be a contest? I mean, 'hello world' in PERL is pretty obfuscated...

Who wants to edit and hack perl scripts?
Perl hackers?

Perl hackers?
My point exactly!!!
Arch_user.likes(KISS)
Perl_hacker.prefers(obfuscated_code)
return Perl_hacker.equals(Arch_user)
**false
(That was some weirdass combination of prolog, Python, Java, and the language inside my head)

Just saw a funny quote:
"There's no obfuscated Perl contest because it's pointless" - Jeff Polk (co-creator of CVS)
I agree.

Perl is good for you..
Most of perl code including regex is based on the exisiting commands..
ex.. sed /^hello$/...
I have not found a limitation to perl other than running out of ideas..
One thing that is a pain is gett;n used to "use strict;" and installing
modules from scratch...

Poor programmers perplex people with purple perl prose.
Some programmers like to make it ugly because they equate ugly programming with job security.
You can make it as translucent as a shell script.
take->that!
