Description: Author explains what he considers wrong about Perl, presents Python as an alternative. Descriptions, code samples, links.
Just a note before you continue: this is based on my personal experience with Perl. I know other people have other opinions of this language and they are welcome to them. I just want to present mine, because I see lots of messages on Usenet from people who seem to be about to learn Perl and I keep wanting to tell them that perhaps it's not a good idea. So, I wrote this article to get this off my chest once and for all.
