LCE008 Perl, in a Nutshell

"Perl, in a Nutshell" is a parody of a Barenaked Ladies song. All new words by me, about my favorite computer programming language, Perl.

This is the Longest Concert Evar, starring Pudge. Send requests to concertrequest@pudge.net, or post them here.

Okay, you officially win. A song about Perl? Based on BNL? Does it get any better? I think Python needs a song now. Python is pretty much amazing.

[pudgenet]

Glad you like Python. I'll stick with Perl, though. :-)

[Charlietheleet]

anyone who says perls a scripting language doesnt know perl

[pudgenet]

Larry Wall has called it a scripting language.

It doesn't matter what you call it. All that matters to me is Perl!

[Charlietheleet]

i'm saying when you use perl a lot you unlock things like a puzzle and it becomes a programming language to me

[pudgenet]

I totally agree.

I am just saying it doesn't matter much what you call it, it's how you use it.

I'm a biologist and I love perl! Many applications in the life sciences are written in perl, actually! :) lol you're nerdy and awesome!

[wombleme]

My god i love perl. Such powerful word parsing...

[oryx3]

Everyone uses Perl, but no one admits it.

[BacklTrack]

Haha It's always easy to write but not always easy to read.

[MadSkyrim]

After finishing a perl lecture early my lecturer decided to play this for the whole class. It was the only fun moment I've ever had with perl :P. Python is just so much nicer to me.

cool song. Let's hope somehow the demand for perl comes back to life. I;m feeling the heat now. Sigh
