Success Story: $census2000++
(March 20) The United States Constitution requires a complete enumeration of
its citizens every ten years. How does the Census Bureau handling this? They
use Perl, of course. Lisa Nyman ( mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] ) offers this
tidbit:
The Bureau has been using perl for web applications, system administration,
and batch production jobs since the mid 1990s. The Census 2000 Internet Form
( http://www.2000.census.gov/ ) uses Perl, as do tasks involved in the first
enumeration to use the web.
If you have a success story with the use of Perl by a government, send it to
Lisa Nyman!
