Key differences between Perl and Racket

Characteristic	Perl	Racket
Syntax	Perl has a flexible and expressive syntax with a lot of built-in features and shortcuts. It is known for its use of regular expressions and powerful string manipulation capabilities.	Racket has a simple and consistent syntax that is easy to read and write. It emphasizes the use of parentheses and has a strong focus on functional programming.
Paradigm	Perl supports multiple programming paradigms including procedural, object-oriented, and functional programming.	Racket is a functional programming language that encourages immutability and emphasizes the use of higher-order functions and recursion.
Typing	Perl is dynamically typed, meaning that variable types are determined at runtime.	Racket is statically typed, meaning that variable types are checked at compile-time.
Performance	Perl is known for its flexibility and ease of use, but it may not be as performant as some other languages due to its interpreted nature.	Racket is designed for rapid prototyping and development, but it may not be as performant as some lower-level languages.
Libraries and frameworks	Perl has a large number of libraries and frameworks available for various purposes, including web development, database access, and text processing.	Racket has a rich ecosystem of libraries and frameworks that are focused on functional programming and language-oriented programming.
Community and support	Perl has a large and active community with many resources available, including online forums, documentation, and tutorials.	Racket has a smaller but dedicated community with a focus on academic and research-oriented programming.
Learning curve	Perl has a steep learning curve due to its flexible syntax and extensive feature set. It may take some time to become proficient in Perl.	Racket has a relatively gentle learning curve, especially for those familiar with functional programming concepts. Its consistent syntax and extensive documentation make it beginner-friendly.
