Since one can find modules on CPAN to do just about anything with Perl,
I would hesitate to call it limited.  But I prefer Perl over Python.
I've tried for years to develop a fondness for Python.  It hasn't
happened yet.

I haven't tried it with Perl, but from the documentation it looks like
it can be:

    https://PerlDoc.Perl.org/perlembed.html

I only use PHP occasionally, and have never tried to embed it either.
One Bing search result recommended the book Extending and Embedding
PHP.
