Perhaps you want to investigate the comparison of security/bugs situation for Perl and Python (comments anyone?). From a quick look I found this: https://www.cvedetails.com/product/18230/Python-Python.html?vendor_id=10210 vs this https://www.cvedetails.com/product/13879/Perl-Perl.html?vendor_id=1885

I would rather sail the Atlantic with a Perl-person rather than a Pythonista. Better problem-solving skills sharpened by years of being exposed to TIMTOWTDI. The concept of TIMTOWTDI also promotes tolerance to other opinions IMO.

Whenever I hear Python, I am reminded of the great Primo Levi and his short story in the Periodic Table, about sourcing Nitrogen for making lipstick. At first he went to his chicken coup but couldn't get enough, then he read that Python's poopoo contain the biggest quantity of N (urea) in the animal kingdom (citing from memory now) and thankfully a circus (zoo?) was visiting the town. So, off he goes to the snake-keeper of the circus and asks to relieve the circus from cleaning the Python's mess. The snake-keeper shows him a long list of people waiting for python poo but the cherry in the pieeopoo is that ... pythons poo just twice a year.

Enjoy the day with an one-liner.

Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
