Have you read Larry Wall's position on natural languages and computer
languages (Programming Perl, Chapter1: an Overview of Perl, Natural and
Artificial Languages)? This messiness and obscurity has created a very
popular language. This language also uses zero-based arrays and requires
holding down the [shift] key alot when coding.
Don't mind me, I've been mentally mutilated from a previous language. ;)
