Many young people here in China do think Perl is too old to learn. For work languages, they prefer Java/C/PHP etc. For a second script language, they prefer more Python/Ruby than Perl. I also don't know why, but it's the real case. Regards. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: beginners-unsubscr...@perl.org For additional commands, e-mail: beginners-h...@perl.org http://learn.perl.org/
