[Ilugc] [TIP] perl beginning
Dear all,
I have intermittent Internet access. Hence the absence of tips on the days
I am unavailable.
I shall try to fix this problem.
Since we have seen a little bit of javascript, jQuery and CGI I think
we should revisit this
later. It is not possible to learn everything at one go.
Today I am starting perl training. Since I am not very good at Python
I will send tips in python later
to improve my skills in that. ;)
Anyway let us begin with some history and background of perl.
This will also put you on a good footing to attend my perl class on
the 18th of this month at TalentSprint
Royappetah.
Simply put Perl is a scripting language, an interpreted language and
it began with a focus on CGI and
text processing in the UNIX world.
Today we find perl being used in all OSes but it is primarily a UNIX
thing and has very strong leanings towards
UNIX geeks, IPC and UNIX internals than Python.
Is this is the reason people in India prefer Python over perl? I dunno.
I cannot answer that.
At least in LUG, the perl knowledge seems woefully poor.
Anyway perl is an interpreted language. Which means that the perl
source and executable are the same.
But that does not mean that we cannot compile perl.
$ perl -c first.pl
will tell you whether the compilation phase of perl is successful.
This is very nice.
We can identify a lot of bugs that way. Also the
$ perl -w
switch and the
use strict;
in the perl source code helps us debug further.
Now let us look at a hello world.
#!/usr/bin/perl
print Hello world\n;
$ perl -c first.pl
$ perl first.pl
will execute it and print it.
Now, perl has mainly 3 data types, scalars, arrays and associative
arrays/dictionary/hash.
Unlike shell scripts and makefile variables, perl always requires a
variable to be prefixed with one of
$, @ or # before it.
Even when assigning a value.
For example, in shell we say,
Var=1
echo $Var
But in perl we say
$var=1;
print $var;
And remember every line in perl needs to have a semicolon.
And though it looks like C, you cannot have an if condition without a {}.
However perl does allow this;
print no match if($var ne 10);
This looks like English. Perl has this construct.
But you cannot do this;
if($var ne 10)
print no match;
Even single line statements need to go inside curly braces.
So let us look at a slightly complicated example before calling it a day.
$cat second.pl
#!/usr/bin/perl -w
use strict;
my ($first, $second) = ();
$first = something;
$second=2;
print The value of first is $first\n;
print The value of second is $second\n;
We will see more in due course. Stay tuned.

Trust me, I have started linuxing with Ubuntu like many others and get crashed my system while trying up something new. But in this case everything is much stable. I have been using SuSE Linux since 1996 for my servers and have been a happy user. I was evaluating 12.1 from RC1 stage for desktop and it was stable. *Version Number* With a bunch of new features and elegant performance improvement this new version is numbered as directly .1 rather .0, because .0 would create many expectations of major improvements. I installed 12.1 RC1 on a brand new laptop (i5-2430, 4GB RAM, Intel GPU, WiFi, BT, card reader etc.) and all devices work out of the box w/o the need for downloading BLOB drivers. I upgraded to 12.1 released version as soon it was available on the mirrors. On the desktop end I am happy with it. However, if you want to use 12.1 on the server side - a few words of caution. I was an early adopter on the server side as well but reverted back to 11.4. There are quite a few issues, mostly related to the switch from System V init to Systemd init. Change to System V init, if you must use 12.1 on the server side. See openSUSE mailing list archives for issues with 12.1.Plan to open bug reports on the breakage I have experienced.

Re: [Ilugc] edubuntu thin-client hardware recommendations

No fans, no excessive cooling requirements - overall be low on power consumption 2. super small form factor (preferably the ITX line); should be portable in bulk.

USB / SD / CF types external storage support I am using Digilite's DL425 Intel Atom board (mini-ITX FF). It does have a fan for the CPU; the noise is almost not perceptible. For the case you can use iBall Netbook cabinet; it does come with a small fan but does not create much noise. You can see the cabinet at iBall web site. You can visit panache.co.in for smaller and more glamorous cabinets but expect to pay around Rs. 3K. It is your choice. Mumbai price estimate would be around Rs. 5500 for the board+memory+cabinet (iBall). TN cost would be in the same ball park. You can PXE boot it or use a thin client firmware. I have done some eval with Thinstation.net but not quite happy with resolution of the fonts and icons. 6. preferably works out-of-the-box with edubuntu / LTSP (ie., i'd rather be doing business than flashing ROMs or hand-configuring PXE) Then be ready to pay extra bucks for some one else to do it for you; be it a thin client vendor or a consultant who can do your setup with off the shelf hardware (see above). From what I've looked around, there are cheap second-hand real-PCs (not thin-clients) that come for about Rs.4k (with hard-disk). Sun's Sunray, HP's and even LTSP's thin clients are way above my budget (works out to Rs.8K or more for the most basic model without considering import duties). Although, they are the only ones that do not need a fan and come with an intel atom / Via C7 like minimal CPU. I see a couple of local sellers, but that is exactly the reason I write to you :) How important is it to you for a fan less solution? The above solution works me, especially, when I don't have to call the vendor to fix it and loose 2 or more days in the process. If given no choice, I'd choose the older PCs at 4K which would run at a higher operating cost (higher power bills, higher cooling bills). But that's atleast a safer bet, unless you have recommendations on local thin-client sellers/assemblers. narrating your edubuntu experience will also be very useful here. Your suggestions? I have shared my solution. I hope you will share your solution once you have completed your setup. -- Arun Khan ___ ILUGC Mailing List: http://www.ae.iitm.ac.in/mailman/listinfo/ilugc
