Understanding the difficulties of raising a young
perl coder, should we see about easing the burden?
I'm more than willing to help out by sending diapers,
formula, or even O'Reilly books to the mother and her little
camel. Does anyone think this is appropriate? I know how
much trouble my brother and his wife had, and I don't wish that
on anyone. Let me know if I'm way off base. Just trying to
help.
Also, if anyone wants to help me work on a perl book
for kids ("My first Perl book"), let me know. I'm toying
with the idea.

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).

or How to display code and escape characters
are good places to start.
