Just talked with a very skilled associate. He prefers Java over C++,
and Python over Java. I've only done a few small projects in Python and
PERL. I found PERL to be a strange language to work with (you
definitely need your PERL hat on, like Scheme).

Yep, you've done things the right way so far. I missed the step over to C++ and
sidestepped to writing requirements. Wrong move, but the job market's picking up
there again. Pick up PERL while you're at it. For some reason, that's hot now.


navaid.com is writen in perl. Even though I've used it for a pretty major
chunk of code like that, I still think of it as a toy language. My next
personal project will probably be in Python.
