    Welcome to the wonderful world of Perl.

    As the first step on your journey, learn that it is either "Perl" (the language) or "perl" (the interpreter), but never "PERL"!

    A program should be light and agile, its subroutines connected like a string of pearls. The spirit and intent of the program should be retained throughout. There should be neither too little or too much, neither needless loops nor useless variables, neither lack of structure nor overwhelming rigidity." - The Tao of Programming, 4.1 - Geoffrey James
