"There are only 10 kinds of languages: the ones people complain about and the ones nobody uses"
- Bjarne Stroustrup, C++ creator
- Perl 0 introduced Perl to my officemates.
- Perl 1 introduced Perl to the world, and changed /\(...\|...\)/ to
/(...|...)/. \(Dan Faigin still hasn't forgiven me. :-\)
- Perl 2 introduced Henry Spencer's regular expression package.
- Perl 3 introduced the ability to handle binary data (embedded nulls).
- Perl 4 introduced the first Camel book. Really. We mostly just
switched version numbers so the book could refer to 4.000.
- Perl 5 introduced everything else, including the ability to
introduce everything else.
