On the other hand, you don't need to know it all. It is not possible and it is not neccessary.
In some cases, you want to go deep, when in other cases, you want to go wide. In some cases, you need to know how to do it with certain tools, when in other cases, all you need to know is whether it is doable with certain tools.
It is also important to know where to find answers, might be a book, a manual, a web site etc. In this way, you know how to turn "unknown" into "known". That's one of the most imprtant area of knowledge you really need.

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).
