One slogan of Perl is that it makes easy things easy and hard things possible. <i>Intermediate Perl</i> is about making the leap from the easy things to the hard ones.</p> <p>Originally released in 2003 as <i>Learning Perl Objects, References, and Modules</i> and revised and updated for Perl 5.8, this book offers a gentle but thorough introduction to intermediate programming in Perl. Written by the authors of the best-selling <i>Learning Perl</i>, it picks up where that book left off. Topics include:</p> <ul> <li>Packages and namespaces</li> <li>References and scoping</li> <li>Manipulating complex data structures</li> <li>Object-oriented programming</li> <li>Writing and using modules</li> <li>Testing Perl code</li> <li>Contributing to CPAN</li></ul> <p>Following the successful format of <i>Learning Perl</i>, we designed each chapter in the book to be small enough to be read in just an hour or two, ending with a series of exercises to help you practice what you've learned. To use the book, you just need to be familiar with the material in <i>Learning Perl</i> and have ambition to go further.</p> <p>Perl is a different language to different people. It is a quick scripting tool for some, and a fully-featured object-oriented language for others. It is used for everything from performing quick global replacements on text files, to crunching huge, complex sets of scientific data that take weeks to process. Perl is what you make of it. But regardless of what you use Perl for, this book helps you do it more effectively, efficiently, and elegantly.</p> <p><i>Intermediate Perl</i> is about learning to use Perl as a programming language, and not just a scripting language. This is the book that turns the Perl dabbler into the Perl programmer.</p> 202545 8 3 2006 Intermediate Perl total:14|5:7|4:3|3:2|2:2|1:0| 14 57 29 0 209276 0596102062 9780596102067 14 0 4.07 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1172699873m/209276.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/209276.Intermediate_Perl 3 0 false Wed Oct 14 13:16:40 -0700 2009 Wed Oct 14 13:16:40 -0700 2009 209276 0596102062 9780596102067 14 0 4.07 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1172699873m/209276.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/209276.Intermediate_Perl 0 0 false Sun Jul 12 17:03:53 -0700 2009 Sun Jul 12 17:03:53 -0700 2009 209276 0596102062 9780596102067 14 0 4.07 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1172699873m/209276.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/209276.Intermediate_Perl 4 0 false Mon May 25 20:59:20 -0700 2009 Mon May 25 20:59:20 -0700 2009 209276 0596102062 9780596102067 14 0 4.07 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1172699873m/209276.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/209276.Intermediate_Perl 0 0 false Sat May 02 22:49:49 -0700 2009 Sat May 02 22:49:49 -0700 2009 209276 0596102062 9780596102067 14 0 4.07 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1172699873m/209276.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/209276.Intermediate_Perl 0 0 false Wed Apr 22 09:08:44 -0700 2009 Wed Apr 22 09:08:44 -0700 2009 209276 0596102062 9780596102067 14 0 4.07 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1172699873m/209276.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/209276.Intermediate_Perl 0 0 false Tue Mar 31 12:28:48 -0700 2009 Tue Mar 31 12:29:13 -0700 2009 209276 0596102062 9780596102067 14 0 4.07 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1172699873m/209276.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/209276.Intermediate_Perl 0 0 false Mon Mar 09 09:57:26 -0700 2009 Mon Mar 09 09:57:26 -0700 2009 209276 0596102062 9780596102067 14 0 4.07 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1172699873m/209276.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/209276.Intermediate_Perl 0 0 false Tue Jan 06 23:46:54 -0800 2009 Tue Jan 06 23:46:58 -0800 2009 209276 0596102062 9780596102067 14 0 4.07 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1172699873m/209276.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/209276.Intermediate_Perl 3 0 false Sun Oct 19 00:53:57 -0700 2008 Sun Oct 19 00:53:57 -0700 2008 209276 0596102062 9780596102067 14 0 4.07 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1172699873m/209276.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/209276.Intermediate_Perl 5 0 false Wed Oct 08 09:51:51 -0700 2008 Wed Oct 08 09:51:51 -0700 2008 209276 0596102062 9780596102067 14 0 4.07 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1172699873m/209276.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/209276.Intermediate_Perl 5 0 false Wed Oct 08 08:25:52 -0700 2008 Wed Oct 08 08:25:55 -0700 2008 209276 0596102062 9780596102067 14 0 4.07 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1172699873m/209276.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/209276.Intermediate_Perl 0 0 false Mon Sep 08 19:57:49 -0700 2008 Mon Sep 08 19:57:49 -0700 2008 209276 0596102062 9780596102067 14 0 4.07 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1172699873m/209276.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/209276.Intermediate_Perl 5 0 false Mon Sep 01 09:15:05 -0700 2008 Mon Sep 01 09:15:05 -0700 2008 209276 0596102062 9780596102067 14 0 4.07 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1172699873m/209276.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/209276.Intermediate_Perl 2 0 false Tue Aug 26 22:19:36 -0700 2008 Tue Aug 26 22:19:46 -0700 2008 209276 0596102062 9780596102067 14 0 4.07 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1172699873m/209276.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/209276.Intermediate_Perl 5 0 false Sat Aug 16 07:29:57 -0700 2008 Sat Aug 16 07:29:57 -0700 2008 209276 0596102062 9780596102067 14 0 4.07 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1172699873m/209276.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/209276.Intermediate_Perl 2 0 false Mon Aug 04 09:59:05 -0700 2008 Mon Aug 04 09:59:05 -0700 2008 209276 0596102062 9780596102067 14 0 4.07 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1172699873m/209276.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/209276.Intermediate_Perl 0 0 false Sun Sep 14 00:43:28 -0700 2008 Mon Jul 21 23:58:45 -0700 2008 Sun Sep 14 00:43:28 -0700 2008 209276 0596102062 9780596102067 14 0 4.07 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1172699873m/209276.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/209276.Intermediate_Perl 0 0 false Fri Jun 20 23:29:45 -0700 2008 Fri Jun 20 23:29:49 -0700 2008 209276 0596102062 9780596102067 14 0 4.07 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1172699873m/209276.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/209276.Intermediate_Perl 0 0 false Mon Jun 16 18:07:53 -0700 2008 Mon Jun 16 18:07:53 -0700 2008 209276 0596102062 9780596102067 14 0 4.07 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1172699873m/209276.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/209276.Intermediate_Perl 0 0 false Fri Jun 13 07:00:57 -0700 2008 Fri Jun 13 07:01:05 -0700 2008 http://www.goodreads.com/book_link/follow/8?book_id=209276
