[Solved]: Thoughts on a section for popular one liners

[Perl300]

Hello monks,

I have not been a very active user until recently when I started working on perl. So please forgive me if I am not suggesting something useful or just repeating a topic that was discussed earlier as well.

As a learner, I am fascinated with one liners in perl that could do something very useful in just one line. So this came to my mind. Would it be a good idea to have a link on perlmonks where we can have users post some interesting/useful one liners? Going further (may be) selected ones are displayed on the website.

Just a thought that I wanted to post so new learners like me would be tempted more into perl and sooner or later start writing their own one liners :-)

I did a quick search on net and found that there is one book as well on perl one liners by o'rielly media.

Thanks in advance!

One-liners... That's a good idea for site content! But we don't need a new section for it. If you read the site doco, such as PerlMonks Sections, you'll find that the best place for one-liners would be Cool Uses for Perl.

I encourage you to peruse the PerlMonks FAQ. You'll find interesting and helpful information, such as.... whether we need more sections. ;-)

Thank you jdporter for referring me to the appropriate sections and PerlMonk FAQ. I'll put more efforts to try finding these myself.

Given you are fascinated with Perl one-liners, you might also enjoy these old nodes:
• List of Perl one-liner links
• Perl "secret operators"
• The Lighter Side of Perl Culture (Part IV): Golf

Thank you eyepopslikeamosquito. This is really interesting and will definitely be a good learning for me. (Some links from "List of Perl one-liner links" are now directing to IBM site, but it's already mention on the link that those are broken.) Enough for me to learn at least for a week :-)
