Though Perl is a wonderful and fun language,
the best language to start with is assembler.
No language gives you so much insight in the inner
workings of a computer. Once you learn assembler the
working and especially restrictions, innerworking, and
limitations of
other higher level languages are much easier to understand
(for instance things as passing arguments by register or by
stack, stack overflows, size limitions of numbers, hexadecimal
number, optimizations etc). Once that is learned Perl makes
an excelent 2nd language....
Have Fun, Frans.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).

Want more info? How to link
or How to display code and escape characters
are good places to start.
