Re: Knowledge for a basic programmer and advanced programmer

If you are coding you should be backing up every 10 minutes or more often.  And you should store a "historical" full copy of the code every 30 minutes or more often and save them for days. Mike On 1/2/24 10:33, William Torrez Corea wrote: On Tue, Jan 2, 2024 at 5:17 AM Shlomi Fish wrote:

Re: [getting PAUSE account]

Just my two cents on this. There is no sense in putting one language over another if it is for personal use. In those cases use what you want and what you feel is best suited to your needs. You might Choose Perl as you are familiar with it and you need to process lots and lots of text for your

Re: [getting PAUSE account]

Re: [getting PAUSE account]

Great question.  I think I did see that Pause accounts were going away soon, but I'm not sure that has taken place yet.  I just signed into my Pause account and I don't see anything about them being retired. This 3 year old post says it takes a bit of time:

[getting PAUSE account]

Dear all, How are you? I hope all is well with you. I’m reading the ‘Intermediate Perl’ textbook. It suggests applying for a PAUSE account. I applied a couple of days ago using the link listed in the book. However, I still haven’t received any reply. Am I doing something wrong? Shall I be more

Knowledge for a basic programmer and advanced programmer

What needs to know a basic and advanced programmer? I am a basic programmer, I don't have enough experience to be an advanced programmer. How many years of experience must an advanced programmer have? -- With kindest regards, William. ⢀⣴⠾⠻⢶⣦⠀ ⣾⠁⢠⠒⠀⣿⡁ Debian - The universal operating system

Try to change the version of my Perl but not change. I have Perl v5.36.1, I tried to change Perl to Perl v5.10.0 but I didn't get the desired effect. I have the following error: A sub-shell is launched with perl-5.10.0 as the activated perl. Run 'exit' > to finish it. > -- With kindest

Re: Preference

In this day and age Kotlin is probably your best bet but if you take on Java you are 90% there with regards to Kotlin. As for Perl, unless you are in a very specific niche Perl is pretty much dead as a commercially viable option as there are too few people that are halfway decent at it so no
