I started perl a year ago when I was trying to get data out of a vendors database without using their client. Some how 'everyone knew perl was the best for the job'. After flailing around with DBI for a few weeks I wasn't so sure. Then I saw what I had to do in C and I believed.
Just yesterday I made a work collegue go weak at the knees with my perl prowess. He had set aside two hours to manually change all user accounts over to a new group. 5 lines of perl later I left him wondering what to do with the next 2 hours. Perl is just too cool. I'm now busy trying to keep up with parrot so I can help develop Perl6. I recommend everyone to wander over to dev.perl.org and have a look. It's going to be a blast. ____________________ In reply to Re: A look back on a year of Perl
