Re: What are people doing with Perl 5 and Raku these days?

I'm using Perl (with Mojolicious) for backend in various applications, I posted something about it in Re^3: Constructive thoughts on Dancer2 v Mojolicious. Also, i'm using Perl to make various small utilities, when you need process a lot of data, getting it from text/csv/sql and putting result to text/csv/sql. I don't see anything near as simple and powerful as Perl for those tasks.

In fairness, Pandas (Python) is very powerful for that sort of thing. It would appear that Perl implements some of that functionality in PDL however.	[reply]

You can get closer to pandas-style functionality with Data::Frame.	[reply]

Oh, I don't do nothing THAT complex to use SUCH powerful things ;) Language level of Python and Perl are the same for me: speed, features, what can be done with them. But Perl have curly brackets for blocks, and Python don't, so programming in Python is always an indendation pain for me (sometimes I need to do something with Python, and it's frustrating), while programming in Perl is always fun. And now when I learn how to make Mojolicious application a Windows service (with Mojo::Server::Elzar), I'm loving Perl more than ever.	[reply]
