Out of style, like your hairdo and all your clothes.

Not as useful as Python in the current year

I know PowerShell, which is practically the same thing

I'm not an archeologist

but I do, and nested hashtables are pretty fucking great

Why not?

I do know Perl. I used it for webdev in 2012 (not a typo). It's more trouble than it's worth.

I do know it, and it's horrible. switched to python and never looked back

We use it on the backend with mojolicious at work. It's a comfy language.

I don't know what a perl is or does sorry

But I do know perl user, I use it every chance I get.

BUT I DO

Because it's picture is a moose of all things...

>Out of style
a.k.a.
>I program based on fashion.
that's why nu-devs are completely shit.

It's more complicated than Awk, and less simple than Python.

What the fuck is it good for.

I am yet to have a need to mess with it, 5 or 6.

Perl is write once read never language.
Only shitty Unix Admins of the 90's used Perl.
tcl was the unsung hero of the 90's.

I prefer the other camel language

I don't really know any languages. I'm the closest to knowing Scheme. Is Perl a good beginner language?

it's good for writing powerful scripts without having to deal with bullshit like python 2 vs 3 differences

5, 6 is a niche little thing that probably shouldn't have happened but it is neat

those shitty unix admins moved onto greener pastures like php and javascript, 'write once read once' never applied to competent perl devs

>Is Perl a good beginner language?
no but if you do decide to learn it the documentation is excellent

>no but if you do decide to learn it the documentation is excellent
