Let's see: You can't statically analyse a dynamic language. (Ig)Nobel award materiale if ever I heard it.

Examine what is said, not who speaks -- Silence betokens consent -- Love the truth but pardon error.

"Science is about questioning the status quo. Questioning authority".

In the absence of evidence, opinion is indistinguishable from prejudice.

I don't think the fact that Perl is dynamic has anything to do with it. Lisp (of any dialect) is a dynamic language and is trivially easy to parse. The grammar of the language and its type system are two entirely different things.	[reply]
