Wow! This is very interesting. Thanks, 40Hz! :D

You might be right. It does have a passing resemblance to Klingon script doesn't it? ;D

Yes, it really does!  :)

40Hz, after your example of APL, other languages, such as Perl, C, and even C++ seem to be for little children. Even assembly language is more readable than APL. You really have to be thought guy to write programs in it.

Not when I keep seeing almost 30-to-1 ratio in Perl vs. Python jobs in the classifieds and IIRC, it's almost neck-and-neck with C++ and PHP coder jobs.
Then I guess I must continue my Perl learning journey!  :)
By the way, what is IIRC?

Where I work almost everybody sees Perl as a "dead" project. And, since I am the only one with some Perl skills, I kind of take it personal.   >:(

Much like "tequila and handguns," it's the way it sometimes gets used that people take issue with. ;D
I thought that it is something related with the language itself. You probably refer to the fact that unreadable code can be created with it, right?


So your advice for those wondering about Perl would be to take a shot?

I already too a shot, I think I need another one.  :)

Thanks, 40Hz! So I haven't learned Perl for nothing.  :)
