Perl is 26 Today
I'm a relatively new programmer. Been programming for around 4 years. I tried Perl, but felt like the world had moved on, so I never really committed to it.<p>With PHP, Python, Ruby and Javascript... space seems tight for another scripting language. Languages like Lua have something special. What's special about Perl?<p>Edit: I don't want to be hateful. The more the merrier obviously.
