As I said,

C/++ with renewed appreciation

No such thing as eval in non-interpreted languages. Unless you're crazy enough to invoke the compiler and exec() the result.

I used eval too in my Perl days which is why I specifically called it out. IMO any time you see eval used there should be another, more proper way to do it.

I was joking, and definitely agree with you. I don't think I've used eval since my first programming course in uni.

Edit: Except for monkey hacks for laughs of course.
