Foil 2 Abstract of PERL Overview

From Tutorial on PERL Computational Science for Information Age Course CPS616 -- Sept 20 97. by Geoffrey C. Fox,Nancy McCracken,Tom Scavo


1 This simple discussion of PERL describes the essential features needed for general-purpose programming
2 It does not describe the special concerns needed for systems programming but is aimed at what you need for writing CGI programs
3 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
4 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
5 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
