in thread Creating a random generator

I know that markup and programming languages are very different and have tried to learn the basics from what I have found on the web. I am still looking for a site that has instructions for Perl that is like the HTML and CSS specifications on the W3C site.

The best way for me to learn something is to learn how to apply it to my current project. If it would cause to much trouble here, I will try to find somewhere else to get the guidance I will need to complete it.

    I don't know if W3C has tutorials (and I'm having problems accessing the site from here), but if you're looking similar to the HTML and CSS specs, then you can read through the Perl documentation. Don't forget to check out the modules that come with Perl too. (If you're using ActivePerl, it installs this documentation locally in HTML format.)
      The W3C site doesn't have tutorials, but the specifications are very well written. It also has those nifty validators too.
