This simple discussion of PERL describes the essential features needed for general-purpose programming
It does not describe the special concerns needed for systems programming but is aimed at what you need for writing CGI programs
We reference in detail the Llama Book: Learning PERL (2nd ed) by Randal L. Schwartz and Tom Christiansen published by O'Reilly and Associates. ISBN: 1-56592-284-0
More detailed is the Camel book: Programming PERL (2nd ed) by Larry Wall, Tom Christiansen, and Randal L. Schwartz, also by O'Reilly. ISBN: 1-56592-149-6
  • This is one of few authoritative Perl5 discussions
Another useful book which lies between the Llama and Camel books in completeness is: PERL by Example by Ellie Quigley, Prentice Hall. ISBN 0-13-122839-0
