I started learning Perl on 19 July, 2010. I am very interested in programming but find it hard and daunting most of the time. Since I registered I've been overwhelmed by how nice the people here are. I ask very stupid and newbie questions, yet some of you spend time to suggest solutions or even write s‎crip‎ts for me. Some even go as far as tutoring me. Thank you, monks! Please bear with me until I get better and ask more sophisticated questions!
