I’m also pleased that its author ranked Perl as one of his top 5 best #programming languages: https://catonmat.net/5-best-programming-languages

1. #C / #Clang
2. #PHP
3. #Perl
4. #GoLang
5. #JavaScript (but only version 1 circa 1995 plus #jQuery)

His 5 worst? https://catonmat.net/5-worst-programming-languages

1. #Haskell
2. #Rust / #RustLang
3. #CPlusPlus
4. #Python
5. modern #JavaScript
