Re: Showing Sample Source Code without Modules

1. Must be at least 100 lines long 2. Must not contain many modules uses

I thought you said they were looking for a Perl programmer. They won't likely get a very good Perl programmer with those requirements. I'd submit an essay explaining why why Perl code over 100 lines that doesn't use modules is a sign of inexperience and poor design.

If you did that in response to a request from me, you wouldn't get the job. There's nothing worse for me, as a hiring manager, than when an applicant tries to second guess me, or thinks he knows better than me what I want. xoxo, Andy	[reply]

But if this is what you want, a decent perl programmer probably wouldn't want to work for you.	[reply]

Not necessarily. I could see wanting to see module-less code as demonstration of understanding of basic concepts. xoxo, Andy	[reply]
