i find it interesting that computerworld feels that it needs to do an article explaining perl. there's something screwy here. i should say that i consider computerworld to be among the least trendy and most solid of the tabloid computer press, probably amongst the most conservative, and i value it largely bacause of that. but i have a hard time believing that we'd see a similar article explaining java, and regardless of one's evaluation of the relative importance of java i would think it fair to state that perl is of the same magnitude in significance. (note how i bend over backward to give the devil his due
:-) ).
maybe this is just first day after a 3-day weekend stuff ... if this had been somewhere else i wouldn't be commenting. maybe i missed something. is there another in this series explaining cobol? that's one i'd like to figure out. (;->)
