You are probably selling yourself short as far as Perl is concerned.
While I will never say that Perl is better than Python (nor the other
way 'round, for that matter), trying to use Pythonic syntax in Perl can
make the code run hundreds of times slower than taking advantage of Perl
idioms.  If idioms are too much of an obstacle, maybe Python's a better
choice for you.
