tyme Posted August 8, 2006 Report Share Posted August 8, 2006 I may need to start programming in Perl in the near future, so I'm looking for some good resources from anyone who has learned it. Web sites, books, etc. - anything that you think would be useful. I know there are sites all over the web, and I will look at them, but I thought I'd check to see if anyone has some that they feel are very useful. Thanks ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gowator Posted August 8, 2006 Report Share Posted August 8, 2006 I like the O'Reilly books but basically I think books with a CD of examples and code are much better for the way I learn.... A really good way I find is buy a good reference book like the Perl in a nutshell and then download lots of code and make yourself little projects. jboy has given you enough for the next 5 yrs so .... no point just googling .... Because of the way PERL is .... the modules are foten directly supported with code, for instance ones I have used a lot are Tim Bunce's DBM: and DBD::<db> Also most of the modules tend to have a test suite with progs and examples .. again really useful. Its really easy to take something working and then play about in many languages but PERL is IMHO really simple.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
