UberDragon13, Welcome to the monastery.
Here are a few tips for getting the best out of this site. Firstly, you may have found that the code you posted has earned a number of -- points. Don't take this to heart as it's just a (fairly meaningless) number after all.
There are two tools it would be a good idea how to find out how to use:
Also, have a good look around the site, read the FAQs, do some searches on topics of interest. In particular, check out the links other monks have given you in reply - this will take you to some quit informative articles both inside and outside the site.
You will find that this is one of, if not the best Perl forum on the Internet.

I have used a large variety of resources to learn perl. This includes books, websites, code snooping etc.
The problem is that like just about everything else, 90% of Perl books and Perl tutorial websites are rubbish. One problem that I'm very interested in is how we in the Perl community steer potential Perl converts to all the good information before they find all of the rubbish.
You've obviously found Perlmonks, which is a good start. I'd also recommend that you look at perl.com and use.perl; on a regular basis.
As far as books go. The wisdom of the Perl community is gathered in perlfaq2. Try typing perldoc -q book at you command line.
