內容描述
Description
Perl Hacks taps into the collective wisdom of the
world's most creative Perl gurus, so you can learn from their experiences.
It's the perfect book for experienced developers looking for time-saving
practical tips or dabblers who are simply curious about Perl's manycool
capabilities. Topics include user interaction, data munging, working with
modules, object hacks, and debugging.
With more than a million dedicated programmers, Perl has proven to be the
best computing language for the latest trends in computing and business. While
other languages have stagnated, Perl remains fresh, thanks to its
community-based development model, which encourages the sharing of information
among users. This tradition of knowledge-sharing allows developers to find
answers to almost any Perl question they can dream up.
And you can find many of those answers right here in Perl Hacks.
Like all books in O'Reilly's Hacks Series, Perl Hacks appeals to a
variety of programmers, whether you're an experienced developer or a dabbler
who simply enjoys exploring technology. Each hack is a short lesson--some are
practical exercises that teach you essential skills, while others merely
illustrate some of the fun things that Perl can do. Most hacks have two parts:
a direct answer to the immediate problem you need to solve right now and a
deeper, subtler technique that you can adapt to other situations. Learn how to
add CPAN shortcuts to the Firefox web browser, read files backwards, write
graphical games in Perl, and much more.
For your convenience, Perl Hacks is divided by topic--not according
toany sense of relative difficulty--so you can skip around and stop at any
hack you like. Chapters include:
Productivity Hacks
User Interaction
Data Munging
Working with Modules
Object Hacks
Debugging
Whether you're a newcomer or an expert, you'll find great value in Perl
Hacks, the only Perl guide that offers somethinguseful and fun for
everyone.
