Learning Perl in a fast way isn't all that hard. Perl is a language that is about results. Coding correctly is more or less a matter of style, but that is something that has more to do with coding than Perl. Once you've moved beyond the basics of creating some simple applications, one of the best teachers I've found is other people's code.

At CPAN you basically have an unlimited repository of code for you to look through. Another good place to learn is through projects which have gained a certain ammount of respect, such as Slashdot (slashcode). You don't have to understand absolutely everything happening, but you can easily pick up some really good tricks that will make your life easier that you'll probably never find in a book or tutorial.

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
    <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
  • Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
  • Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
