Perl

Perl is a dynamic language that is largely credited for powering the first dot-com bubble, and to a lesser degree is still propelling innovation for Web 2.0 and beyond. Perl is one of the most mature programming languages, yet still has an active and prodigious community.

One of Perl's most distinct advantages is the CPAN, a vast resource of user contributions to solve both simple and exceedingly complex problems.

While non-Perl programmers like to call Perl antiquated, recent developments such as Moose, Catalyst and DBIx::Class have shown Perl to be more capable (and more elegant) than many other languages, especially those lacking meta-object systems and protocols.
