hsweet has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

I'd like some ideas on how to explain the great mystery of objects and references to my class (and to myself, for that matter). My students at this point have some grasp of the basic Perl stuff, variables, hashes, control structures, input/output etc. I'd like to leave them with a taste of things to come without losing them.

I've had time since my first post to develop my Perl website at http://ghs.gcsny.org/~hsweet/programming/. There is a page on objects there. I haven't used it yet with my students.

All the replies I got on my last post were very helpful
