I have just started getting into perl and its terse procedural goodness is a breath of fresh air. Sometimes static types, classes and objects get really old.

- wazoox 16y agoThat's why you must use Modern Perl. See guidelines in the free Modern Perl Book : http://www.modernperlbooks.com/mt/2010/11/the-book-is-out.html http://www.modernperlbooks.com/mt/2010/11/the-book-is-out.ht...
- ddkrone 16y agoWhy? Because I don't want objects or because I should use objects?
- kentnl 16y agoBecause sometimes objects are the right answer, and when they are the right answer, you want to be maximally equipped to use them as easy as possible. Perl doesn't bash you over the head and make you use objects by making "int" an object, but they're there if you need them. ( And if you really need to, you can make int at least look like an object )
