programmer.
Learning Perl is ideal for system administrators, programmers,
and anyone else wanting a down-to-earth introduction to this useful
language. Written by a Perl trainer, the book's aim is to make a
competent, hands-on Perl programmer out of the reader as quickly as
possible. The book takes a step-by-step, hands-on tutorial approach and
includes hundred of short code examples. 274 pp. Pub: 11/93.
