Perl is ~magic~!

No seriously ! it is !

Hey I have used this language to do amazing things. It would have taking like twice the time to do so much with another language.

With this language I can call matlab, c++ and even JSL applications. I can modify, read or parse files. And there is always a module out there for you !

sorry it had to come out !

Long life to Perl !

Have a look at some of the obfuscated Perl-scripts. Compared to these the formula in the Necronomicon look simple and plain. CountZero "If you have four groups working on a compiler, you'll get a 4-pass compiler." - Conway's Law	[reply]

I have already looked at them, but I can't run them all ! I have to admit though, some of them are really something !	[reply]
