in reply to What is Perl *NOT* good at?

That's easy. Anything that C excels at, Perl generally does not. Two things that come to mind:

  • Operating System design
  • Lower-level graphic processing

If I am interested in developing client-side applications and software that requires years of development along with dozens of programmers, Perl would not be high on my list of choices, even though I might still try to sneak it in. ;)
