... Perl is an object-oriented language, but the script I wrote uses
none of those constructs. It's ideal for these "quick and dirty"
programs because it's not a compiled language (like C, FORTRAN,
C++, etc.) and yet it has a complete set of math functions unlike
other scripting languages.
I'd agree that Perl/C/C++ have similar syntax, and so once you
have the 'skills' to read one, learning to read the others is
not hard. But I wouldn't put them in the same class.
