All > Technology > Programming > Perl
A language beloved by many for its inside-out "type" definitions, inscrutable "precedence" rules, and heavy "overloading" of the function-call mechanism. (Well, actually, people first switched to C because they found lowercase identifiers easier to read than upper.) Perl is written in C, so it's not surprising that Perl borrowed a few ideas from it.

An enzyme that is involved in many cell processes, such as cell division. The gene for c-ABL is on chromosome 9. In most patients with chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML), the part of chromosome 9 with c-ABL has broken off and traded places with part of chromosome 22 to form the BCR-ABL fusion gene.

Loosely, the group of microwave frequencies from 4 GHz to 6 GHz used in satellite communications. 2. The band of satellite downlink frequencies between 3.7 and 4.2 GHz. Note 1: For federal procurement purposes, the radio frequency band(s) must be specified using the upper and lower limits of the band, per 47 CFR 300. Note 2: Letter designators of radio frequency bands are imprecise, and in the international community are deprecated and obsolete.
