Istanbul, Turkey - a mixture of the ancient and modern. Visited on "Perl Whirl 2004". In many ways, the Perl language is like Turkey. It's based on the ancient and well tested principles of spoken language (most notably, there's a strong Japanese influence in Perl 6) but makes use of those ancient principles in providing a tool that's well suited for modern times. And, just as a very large number of people live in Turkey, a very large number of people use the Perl programming language. If you want to learn to program in Perl, have a look at the descriptions of our courses on this site; we provide not only courses for newcomers to programming, but also "conversion" courses if you already know C, or C++, VB or Java, or some other programming language.
