well the interesting thing might be in what subject areas for each language are mainly implemented.
if you look at python for example 0% of pattern matching is implemented, in fact I don't think any of the languages complete pattern matching except for Perl, 0% of internet services and 0% sockets are implemented. 100% of Numbers and so forth: http://pleac.sourceforge.net/pleac_python/t1. html This might also better demonstrate the right tool for the job principle. Of course another problem is programmer time. As it follows the Perl cookbook that's the one which will have 100% done (pissy comments removed on second-thought.) > > On 11-Oct-03, bryan wrote: > > > Anyone seen this before, http://pleac.sourceforge.net/ PLEAC - > > Programming Language Examples Alike Cookbook.
