Dear Monks

Question: What should I do: Learn More perl or something else?

I have been programming perl for sometime. The good background in math and math-logic combined with professional US Education has made a good bond for me with computer programming. I have enjoyed it over the years and learned few other languages.

My work requirement is at 90% perl, 10% html and javascript. Mainly it is about data processing, conversion, done with some intelligent logic and algorithms, which is fun.

Where should I take my programming soul? Few things that come to the mind are programming techniques, other programming languages, business oriented programming, visual programming, perl internals etc..

Your insight would be of great help. I love our community.

Update: My aspect is not just solving computational problems at hand. It's about gaining more mileage out of programming knowledge.

Thanks,
Artist
