Re^2: Suggestions for getting a more solid understanding of Perl

Hi All--

Thanks so much for all your advise and encouragement. I think I'll work on using my 2nd edition of Programming Perl as a jump start and reference while topping up my skills with several of the references mentioned.

I look forward to posting more questions to the board as I learn!

I like dead trees, so I went from Learning Perl to The Perl Cookbook to Learning Perl(4th) with a detour through Cross-Platform GUI Programminng with wxWidgets(wxPerl). I also read most of the Perl Monks posts on a daily basis to broaden my vision of what is out "there". From this I know I need to spend more time with split, join, map, grep, and regexs. Some of that stuff looks like whistling into an acoustic coupler! I like to learn from reading good code as has already been mentioned. James	[reply]
