Subject: [ruby-talk:20407] Neck and neck in the Perl/Python poll


Well, the results are in for the latest RubyGarden poll:


     If I couldn't use Ruby for scripting, I'd use:

     Perl               37.34% (90)
     Python             39.42% (95)
     bash/csh/zsh,...    6.22% (15)
     Tcl                 1.66%  (4)
     PHP                 4.98% (12)
     Other               2.49%  (6)
     No Ruby? No coding! 7.88% (19)


Perl and Python ran pretty much neck and neck through the life of the
poll, so we should probably call it a statistical draw. Of course, the
_correct_ answer is the last one...

This week's poll is far more personal.
