I first learned "true" programming with Perl. My next language was C to learn how to program microcontrollers. Incidentally, they remain my two favorite languages even after Python, C++, Java, Tcl, shell, LISP, and multitudes of assemblies. I feel these two languages cover most of my uses.
I just wish the built-in XS Perl<>C integration was simpler. I need to look into some CPAN modules for a more ctypes-like interface. Better yet, it should use libclang to autogenerate bindings!
- bch 13y agoSince you mention you have Tcl experience, you may want to (re?)explore the Tcl/C relationship. An absolute joy to work with. Also, re: bindings, you may be interested in the SWIG interface generator: http://www.swig.org http://www.swig.org
