Oh sorry I forgot all the other languages you peeps use can't just place the output in the form of a webpage and send it back a easily as perl can yas?
Perl can automatically create html output? Interesting...
Perl "just places the output" as an html page? That's pretty cool, but how does it know that I want the output to a matrix placed in a table w/ or w/o borders? That negative values should be colored red? Truth be told, many languages have various degrees of network support built-in... Java, Clojure (by extension... or any language running on the JVM for that matter), C#, Obj-C, Python, Common Lisp and quite a few others to boot. Ansi-C is the only other industry standard language that I can think of offhand where I'm certain there isn't network support built-in (other, less certain, languages would include C++ and Scheme... I'm 50/50 on Smalltalk and Ada).
However, there is another, more important, difference... no other language is nearly as FUGLY as PERL!!! =)
if ($number < 0) {
print "<b> $number </b>";
}
else { print "$number"; }
I find perl a beautiful language, after having learned the basics but i'm going to need to look up its web items before I jump in to this head first.
As it stands the script would be (imo) incredibly simple. Design the output of the matrices so I know how to work with them, I can design the matrix navigation in less than an hour... I've always been iffy with file input though.
I'll see if I find the time to do it by friday or so.
