In this update of a bestseller, two of today's leading Perl trainers prove that
Java's not the only viable programming language for the Web. Now current for
Perl version 5.004, this book is literally a hands-on tutorial which includes a
lengthy new chapter on CGI programming. This new volume also touches on the use
of library modules, references, and Perl's object-oriented constructs.
Contents include:
- A quick tutorial stroll through Perl basics
- Systematic, topic-by-topic coverage of Perl's broad capabilities
- Lots of brief code examples
- Programming exercises for each topic, with fully worked-out answers
- How to execute system commands from your Perl program
- How to manage DBM databases using Perl
- An introduction to CGI programming for the Web
For a person just learning to program Perl, this book--along with O'Reilly's
Programming Perl--makes the ultimate Perl course. Check it out!
