I gave you a plus vote for taking your medicine and coming back again. I'd give you another plus for a well written second question if I could. I noticed someone still downvoted you on your second question showing perhaps still some bias towards homework questions. Or it could because of the reference to Perl Monks being too advanced.

There are all levels of programmers here at the Monastery and many basic questions asked and many basic questions answered. We all think this is the best forum for Perl you'll find and would encourage you to keep returning. There also is also a lot of good basic material available here, some of it was already pointed out to you and you have the book. We'll expect you to do your research before posting as you've already seen. Please feel free to come here for help and bring a thick skin.

P.S. You'll get a wider readership on new questions if you start a new node rather than posting as a response to an existing node.
