I like books, especially books about all that it-stuff - so I bought books about perl someday a few years ago. I wasn't very interessted in perl these days but I thought it could be usefull in the future. Sooner I had to do some conversion, between the format of the logfiles of some new measurement-equipment and the format of the software the guys in our laboratory used. That was the point when I thought: Hey you've got those books about that perl-thing - maybe it's the right tool for this kind of work. And it was. After that I was asked to build some small intranet-web-apps and again I tried perl to do it (and produced a lot of really bad and ugly code) - and it worked fine. I've joined the folks at http://perl-community.de (german-speaking perl-community) about 2 years ago and learned a lot. Some time later I joined perlmonks and I'm still learning a lot.
So I've to thank all of you for work here.

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).

are good places to start.
