Product Description

Product Description
Many neophyte programmers now begin their careers by learning the metalanguage Perl. But the books currently available on Perl assume their readers already understand the basics of writing and designing programs-when in fact they often do not. Elements of Programming with Perlteaches programming right along with the particulars of Perl syntax as well as good style and structure and maintainability of the code. This book is also designed for the many webmasters who use Perl without a training in basic programming concepts and will help them create robust and reusable software. Advanced concepts such as modular programming, abstract datastructures, and object-oriented programming are covered once the basics have been thoroughly worked through. This book is rich in graphical illustrations of the concepts covered.

5.0 out of 5 stars a must for beginers, 17 Sep 2000
By A Customer
I bought elements as well as 'Learning Perl' but found 'Elements of Programming assumed far less of the reader. The level of handholding is just right, and if you do the execises at the end of each chapter you'll be amazed at what you've learnt. The online author is there to help out with any problems and I've found him to give detailed and helpful explainations on his Perl forum. If you are serious about learning Perl (even as a first language) buy this book.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great introduction to Perl for Non-Programmers, 9 Feb 2000
By A Customer
Unitl now the there have been two types of books that taught Perl. On one hand there were 'Learning Perl' and 'Perl: The Programmers Companion', both of which assumed that you were an experienced programmer wanting to learn a new language. On the other hand wre books like 'Perl for Dummies' which were a complete waste of paper.

This book is different. It doesn't assume that you have any programming knowledge at all. It teaches you programming whilst teaching you Perl. And it does it very well. If you're a non-programmer and you want to learn Perl - this is the book you need,

5.0 out of 5 stars A beginners book with the same strength as "Learning Perl", 23 Jan 2000
By A Customer
If you already own Learning Perl this wont bring much knowledge to you. I may say it's either this one or Learning Perl not both. This book explans everything in dept and then takes you there to a highlevel of Perl Programming making sure you don't miss a single thing. Though if you having a hard time figuring out perl both books might not be such a bad idea after all. Chosing this one over Learning Perl might be a question about taste not the quality about the books contest.
