About Raku

Raku, originally known as Perl 6, was created in 2000 as a sister language to Perl. It aimed to address the limitations of Perl 5 and introduce new features for modern programming needs. The language underwent extensive development over many years and was eventually renamed Raku in 2019 to distinguish it from the original Perl language.

Raku's strengths include its expressiveness, flexibility, and robust text processing capabilities. Its weaknesses are a steep learning curve and slower performance compared to some other languages. Competitors include Python, Ruby, and Perl.
