I have programed in VC++, VB and Javascript, But have found none to be as easy and as fun to work with as perl. With perl you are given powerful tools with vary few restrictions. Unlike VC++ with its complex way of doing every task, with perl you not only do you know how each part works you can rewrite it, in short order, if you need extra functionality. Programing perl is a relaxing and enjoyable.
Perl has shown me that you don't have to make things complex to write powerful code.
How has your own perl experience made you a better person?

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).
