Perl
January 28th, 2018
----------------------------------------
I guess it's about time I bite the bullet and learn perl. Michael
Conrad posted a link to his blog [0] about his absolutely
incredible car project where he's designed a custom dash that's
actually a little linux machine. He's done just about everything
in perl 5 and opened my eyes to some of its power.
I've always thought of perl as a write-only (because the syntax is
so dumb) glue language. Since I'm so comfortable with shell
scripting, it seemed like an unnecessary step to take. It seems
that some of that syntax has gotten better, and the way it
interacts with c is pretty cool. Availablity on a huge range of
systems is a plus.
I found a few decent quickstart guides. I'll give this a go.
