Others (especially Maclir) have provided excellent comments,
but I just wanted to add that while Perl may "spoil" you for
using some other languages, knowing what Perl can do may give
you a desire to know how Perl does it, and if you can understand
the inner workings of Perl ("pluck the source from Larry's hand")
by the time you graduate university, then you will really have
an advantage!
