This simple discussion of PERL4 describes the essential features needed to get going for general purpose programming
  • A few Perl5 points are made when appropriate
i.e. 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 Llama Book: Learning PERL by Randal L. Schwartz and published by O'Reilly and Associates. ISBN: 1-56592-042-2
More detailed is the recently updated Camel book: Programming PERL by Larry Wall, Tom Christiansen and Randal L. Schwartz and also published by O'Reilly and Associates. ISBN: 1-56592-149-6
  • This is one of few authoritative Perl5 discussions
Another useful book which lies between Llama and Camel books in completeness is: PERL by Example by Ellie Quigley, Prentice Hall. ISBN 0-13-122839-0
