Perl
I’m about to embark on learning how to program in Perl. Perl is a web programmer’s language. It’s been coined the “duct-tape of the internet.” The language is strong in text manipulation and features a rapid development cycle.
With its CGI module, handling HTML forms is simple. Perl can work with encrypted Web data. It can also be embedded in web servers and have been known to increase performance up to 2000%. The mod_perl module allows the Apache web server to embed a Perl interpreter. Perl also has a DBI package making web-database integration easy.
