Hi all -
I would like to recommend "Effective Perl Programming" by Joseph N. Hall
with Randal L, Schwartz, Addison-Wesley, 1998, ISBN 0-201-41975-0. Although
"old", it has really helped my style.
I was raised with c. My early Perl efforts were very c-ish. For example, to
print an array I went from:
for (my $i = 0; $i < scalar (@array}; $i++) {
print ("$array[$i]\n");
}
to:
print "$_\n" for (@array);
Now, if I could just find a book that would tell me how to condense this
further to:
;
and having got that far, remembering that the trailing semicolon in a block
is optional, to:
But in all seriousness, EPP is very helpful.
Aloha - Beau.
