Prvo pozdrav ...
Kôd:
#!/usr/bin/perl -T
use strict;
print "Zdravo DevProTalk!\n";
Mislim da ovo daje i moj odgovor na pitanje
Moram priznati da sam Python samo povremeno imao portebe da gledam, a koristim Gentoo gde je vecina stvari napisana u Python-u, ironija zar ne?. Tako da nisam potpuno kompetentan da odgovorim zato da/ne Python. Dakle samo zasto Perl.
Rasprostranjenost Perl-a je veoma velika, nisam siguran da li postoji Linux/Unix koji dolazi bez njega, dok Windows i ako ne dolazi sa njim, lako se instalira i veoma je dobro podrzan.
Vec pomenuti all-mighty CPAN -
http://search.cpan.com na kome mozete naci skoro bas sve sto vam padne na pamet. I vecina (pogotovo stariji moduli) imaju veoma dobru dokumentaciju, help i tutorijale.
Podrska za klase jeste cudna (u poredjenju sa C++), ti tu kao bless-ujes hash referencu... Ali kada se malkice naviknes, to je tako dobro i ima dana kada pozelim takve stvari u C++ ili C# ...
Sto se tice old-school i "izumiranja" ... Evo par linkova ...
Perl is dead. Long Live Perl - O'Reilly
Citat:
In the past five years Perl’s usage has grown by almost 700%. This leads people to question why it looks like Perl’s market share is sliding. The answer is that they typically use web site development as a measure of marketshare, and the percentage of the web that’s programmed in Perl is shrinking. Is that due to people not using Perl? No. Absolutely not. Instead, it’s just that there are more web sites and more programming language options. Ten years ago almost all web applications were either written in Perl or C, but since then dozens of new languages have caught on. In addition, there are an estimated 20 million new sites put up each year. Even though the number of sites created in Perl doubles every year, tracking it by percentages will make the numbers seem to shrink.

How not to write a Perl job ad
Citat:
I should probably mention that the Perl market in Australia is super tight right now. Heaps of open positions, hard to find anyone to fill them. My current workplace (til tomorrow) — a major national website and household name — has 20 Perl roles opening up over the next few months, and are offering no less than $8000 kickback to staff who refer someone suitable. I know that the two other big Perl shops in town — both of which have staff active in the local Perl community — are hiring almost constantly.
