You mean “Perl” (the language) instead of “Curl” (which is just a download
tool)?
No Lisp-type languages? Some of them can do your head in. Assembler? SQL?
POSIX shells? JavaScript? My favourite, Python?
Some cool stuff in modern Fortran: free-form layout, with no more column
numbers! Format strings can come from expressions within the I/O
statement, so there is no more need for statement numbers at all. Types
can have a limited form of parameterization, even allowing for function
overloading. There are structured types, even object orientation.
