Re^2: References in Perl by Marshall (Canon) on Aug 02, 2009 at 18:07 UTC
These diagrams are helpful. I would recommend: "Advanced Perl Programming" by S. Srinivasan. A student who doesn't have at least 2-3 quarters of 'C' will find the text challenging. Chapter 20, "Perl Internals" is quite informative as are others. The OP has posed a very broad question, the general answer to which, just won't fit in a single Monk post. The question just has to get more specific otherwise at least I am unable to help further.	[reply]

I would recommend: "Advanced Perl Programming" by S. Srinivasan. An absolutely excellent book from 1997(!), which is unfortunately out of print! 8( There are some free PDF copys in the web but I don't know if they are legal. At our last perlmongers meeting all agreed how good this book is! (And I always wondered what happened to the author, seems he left the scene completely) Sorry can't say much about the - completely different - actual print with the same title , haven't read it! Cheers Rolf UPDATE: bio, bookreview	[reply]

Thank you for the reference - no pun intended :) I was replying direct to the OP, as a new Perlmonk I wouldn't even imagine an experienced Monk would need my help in outlining a Perl concept.	[reply]
