Should I learn Perl

Name: Anonymous 2010-09-07 9:01

On my brand new Fedora 13 I notice that a lot of stuff is managed trough Perl. I'm always been curious about it, but I never watched at it, while I'm pretty good in many other languages (like C, C++, Java and Python).

What do you think about it? Is it worthy to learn it?

and it sits in a convenient niche where shell scripts aren't good enough but C is too painful.
That niche only ever existed in the minds of people who never bothered to learn shell scripting properly. Even Bash is a surprisingly advanced and powerful programming language.
