Key differences between Perl and C

Characteristic	Perl	C
Syntax	Perl has a more flexible and expressive syntax compared to C.	C has a more rigid and structured syntax compared to Perl.
Paradigm	Perl is a multi-paradigm language that supports procedural, object-oriented, and functional programming paradigms.	C is a procedural language that does not support object-oriented or functional programming paradigms.
Typing	Perl is a dynamically typed language, meaning that variable types are determined at runtime.	C is a statically typed language, meaning that variable types are determined at compile time.
Performance	Perl is generally slower than C due to its interpreted nature and dynamic typing.	C is generally faster than Perl due to its compiled nature and static typing.
Libraries and frameworks	Perl has a large number of libraries and frameworks available for various purposes, including web development, database access, and scientific computing.	C has a smaller number of libraries and frameworks available compared to Perl, but it has a strong focus on system-level programming.
Community and support	Perl has a strong and active community with many resources available for learning and support.	C also has a strong community and support, but it is more focused on system-level programming and may not have as many resources available for other areas.
Learning curve	Perl has a moderate learning curve due to its flexible syntax and multi-paradigm nature.	C has a steep learning curve due to its rigid syntax and low-level nature.
