“A Python Programmer Learns Perl” is a bit filmed earlier today. A couple of quotes: (mjd to the python programmer) “Bad programmer, no cookie” “Read. Learn. Evolve.”

The Python programmer summed up his experience: “Whitespace, bad! Dollar signs, good!” and “Larry? Definately weirder than Guido.”

I didn’t know abigail was a dutch man.

Then they did the name game using the names of various perl personalities and perl functions like “wantarray”. That’s one of the things we need in Perl 6 — more group singing.

Warning The movie is not intended for children or those who don’t understand Perl.
