Hi Tobias,

While you wait for a study buddy to learn Perl with, I suggest you do the following:

  1. Get a good introductory book about Perl. To help you with that, you can have a look at the recommendations in learn.perl.org. In particular, you might be interested in checking the perl.org online library
  2. Solve the exercises in the book you are reading
  3. You might want to join the perl.beginners mailing list. For instructions on how to do it, you can check here
  4. If you cannot solve/understand an exercise from the book you are reading, you might want to ask in the perl.beginners mailing list or here at PerlMonks. However, I recommend you to always try do a search first. In that sense, you could try this site for a list of Google searches for the Perl Beginners Mailing List. Or you could try to do a Super Search to help you find information in the PerlMonks site
  5. Search for a real-life problem you want to solve using Perl. It has to be something that interest you, so you can spend the required time to learn about Perl while solving your problem.
  6. Keep participating here in the Monastery. Here, there are many people just like you: searching for the light. Let's walk together to find it

Cheers!
