Someone recommended a SAMS book that will teach you perl in 21 days. Get
the O'Reilly "Llama" book ("Learning Perl") and spend about an hour a day to
finish in less than a week and a half.
There are a few other O'Reilly titles I really like:
"Perl in a Nutshell" - great reference
"Perl for System Administration" - If you are a sysadmin or webmaster this
is a must-have.
I want to get "Programming Perl" (the Camel book) as well as their Win32
book (even though most of my work is currently in UNIX).

Subject: Suggestions?
Greetings all - I realize this is a very broad question, however any
suggestions would be appreciated.
I'm looking to purchase good learning tools about programming in PERL. I've
been programming with it for several years, but I've never truly learned the
basics - just looked at other code and learned from that.
Specifically I'd like to learn from "ground zero" about variables, hashes,
etc. as well as MySQL connectivity.
I'd like to find something that is concise - I have several projects that
I'll be working on in the very near future, and fine-tuning my knowledge
would be of great benefit.
Again, any suggestions will be appreciated.
