Default Re: Best Programming Language for Analyzing Hand Histories?

As someone else said, whatever you're comfortable in is best. I like Perl, but that's just me. For someone who is learning the language from scratch, consider Python.

The high level languages, Perl/Python/Ruby, all sport regular expression engines that make parsing of text files simple once you get used to the regular expression syntax. Any basic "learning" book on these languages will give you the basic for regex also.
