in thread What's missing in Perl books?

The Perl Cookbook is chock-full of examples. Other than that, read the source. You've got all the examples on how to program (and sometimes how not to program) on CPAN, download a module that deals with your problem space and read through it, you're bound to gather some insights that way.


Debugging is twice as hard as writing the code in the first place. Therefore, if you write the code as cleverly as possible, you are, by definition, not smart enough to debug it. -- Brian W. Kernighan
