Well, PHP/PERL and My/postgreSQL are exactly the same on both Windows and Linux (well, there are some minor differences, i.e. installing them on linux is much easier, and the slashes are in another direction). A LAMP and a WAMP are very similar, except that the LAMP is much more stable and secure (when installed correctly). > a bit of perl since they are quite similiar), and prolog. > Thanks for all the links, I'll check them out. > Regarding the perl issue - I'm lucky to have learned php which lead me to > perl, since i understand many linux applications are written in perl, or Many Linux applications are written in many languages, among the most popular are C, C++, PERL, python, PHP, Java, Assembly, delphi (kylix), TCL/Tk, mono (aka C# .NET) and many many more, but whatever language you write, as long as the final product is good, it is good. Don't start talking about which language is better, or you will start some flame wars, which might be a fun way to waste time, but I think all of us prefer slashdot :). Shlomif is a PERL addict, so you can expect him to try to make you think that the entire Linux system is written in PERL. Sadly (or happily, depending on your favorite programing language) it is not. There are programs written in any programming language you can think of, and most of them are useful for someone, somewhere. Just use the language you want, and keep your head open - there is huge number of programing languages, and you can never know which of them can make the task in front of you much much easier. > perl-like syntax, I'll check the Israeli website too . > Thanks for all the help & support :-) You are welcome - any new developer coming around to help us is good.
