"...answer that question for myself?"

Perhaps like this?

" I've never taken a formal class on Perl."

Never mind. Perhaps this spared you another painful experience (i'm a bit unsure "ob man dass so sagt").

I saw some assignments from such a "formal class on Perl". Holy crap! Weird constructs and inquisitorial questions without any practical orientation.

I doubt very much that you would have learned anything about corelist in such "a formal class".
