Hi,
I seem to have lost my reference to a web site with a series of around
100 simple Perl examples that have been implemented in other languages.
I think the Perl examples might have originally come from a book.
I do remember that there was a page that gave the percentage of the
original Perl examples that had been covered by other languages.
The other languages included both Ruby and Python as well as others.

I have googled, but without success.

Thanks, Paddy.
I've finally found it:
