in thread Perl + Ruby = ?

No, no, no. That's simply not true. It's more like this:

Ruby - Perl = Python.

    I thought the general consensus was that:
    Ruby > (Perl - CPAN) + Python
    Anything else is pure opinion and conjecture :-)

    Which also means

    Perl = Ruby - Python

    Logical, if you think about it, but still unnerving.

    Makeshifts last the longest.

      Not according to my math ...
      Ruby - Perl = Python
      
      -Perl = Python - Ruby
      
      Perl = -Python + Ruby
      
      that's more like it ;)

      jeffa wonders if negative Perl is really the Anti-Perl

        Yes, and

        - Python + Ruby = Ruby - Python

        Makeshifts last the longest.
