[SLUG] script to parse and compare an IP address

I am trying to write a script that parses an unknown IP address from a page
of HTML, compares the IP address to a file and overwrites the file if the
saved IP address is different. My question is, what language should I
investigate to accomplish this? Is this able to be done with a bash script
and command line utilities or is there another language like perl or python
that would be better suited for this task? C has always been my game so I'm
less familiar with the strengths and capabilities of some of the other tools
out there. Thanks in advance!
