PERL Programming Skills Test
(Hands-on programming skills)
(Leading to ExpertRating PERL Skills Certification)

You are one of the lucky 500 people who have been given an opportunity to take this PERL Programming Test and attain the coveted ExpertRating Perl Skills Certification.

There are at least a handful of red flags between the URL, page title, and first paragraph alone.

i was attempting to get Perl Certification from Expert Ratings has the same form of reading the input. I attempted test two times but failed.

There are several threads around here that discuss the merits (or lack thereof) of certification programs like these. Before dropping another $25 to take this test, I'd encourage you to read a couple of them. From one Monk to another, I suspect the time you'd spend taking the "PERL Programming Skills Test" (again) would be better spent reading a few selected perldocs and/or Tutorials. Worry not about shiney things; meditate upon the fundamentals and Perl will open itself to you. True masters of the language do not need a $25 piece of paper from some online company to prove their knowledge.

Best of luck.
