Perl, the cannonical Perl tome.

It is cannonical because it can be used as an heavy projectile. It does not have the penetrative power of depleted uranium though.

Books of the "unleashed collection" are pretty good arms as their name suggests but otherwise lack the good kind of density.

Time flies like an arrow, fruit flies like banannas

Yes, I can spell bananna but I'm never sure when to stop.

Sorry, I could not resist.

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.
