    Perl:

    Problem -> $ @ % <=> =()= => ; qw() ])} select(undef, undef, undef, 0.25) =~ tr/.?\w\sREg3xfr0mhe|l/foo/g; &homebrewedFunction(%) -> solution

    Source: I mainly code in perl. I like it, but I’ll be the first to admit that it’s not a beautiful language.

    I was about to make an entry for lisp here, but I don’t have enough parentheses to draw the path to the solution.

      I was hired twice to write Perl, both times switched my department to something else after a few years.

      Perl is good for command line processing, and absolutely god awful read-only magic hacks. Nothing else.

      I personally never understood how anyone could find Perl appealing or even “good” to program in, probably because I could never understand wtf the code was meant to do
