Unicode Yes Yes
Interpreter Yes Yes
Description Perl is a programming language that was first made to change text files. The programming language has been changed many times to do things in addition to changing text files. Sometimes Perl code is written using many symbols besides letters and numbers, which can make those programs hard to read. Groovy is an object-oriented programming language for the Java platform. It is a dynamic language and can be used as a scripting language. Groovy uses a Java-like bracket syntax. It is dynamically compiled to Java Virtual Machine (JVM) bytecode and interoperates with other Java code and libraries.
