Don't blame perl for giving you the option of making your code look like shit.
That's the entire fucking point:
You [sh/]would [not] need [an interpreter for every god damn language expression in the universe] in the first place if simple verbs are made in a language's grammar. [Perl has, will always be a] bastard blob of over engineering.
Functional programming, and expressions in lambda, simplifies most of the complexity in convey abstract executions that can be modularized.
IDGI: The symbolic expressions in Lisp and children, solved the complexity of express ideas that a computer needs to execute, in a manner humans can read.
you chose not to because you wanted to save some keystrokes or you didn't know any better.
Are you speaking with your god or something? I know how to write code, so that when I look back on it 10 years later, I can not only understand it, but relearn it by reading it, and any kid that takes my place can too.
"there a million ways to write the program, pick the one that is most readable.
You love to misinform, don't you, kid?:
Although the Perl Slogan is There's More Than One Way to Do It, I hesitate to make 10 ways to do something.

http://en.wikiquote.org/wiki/Larry_WallYou can just as easily make C code look like shit
And I brought C into the conversation⸮ Lame diversion tactic.
Perl at least has propper lexical scoping
Proper, LOL:

Yeah, confusion, since you can change your scope on the fly

There is a reason this site is written in it instead of
Yeah, we needed something quick so we can talk to each other while engineer on our spare time something better. Not that it is safe, solid, and robust in anyway, child.
And I can't believe you said lua.
It's what the kids use, and what is cheap to deploy from C Bachelors. Better than Csh, TCL, and Perl any day. But I personally do not mind the usage of PCRE.
