Perl Programming Books Available at Your Local Bookstore!

The books, "Modern Perl Programming" and "Programming Perl in the .NET Environment" are authored/co-authored by the founder of /training/etc, Michael Saltzman.

Programming Perl in the .NET Environment

This book is intended for both .NET and Perl programmers to help bring these two rich worlds together. In Perl there is a saying: "there is always more than one way to do it." That is even more true now, as you can add "the .NET way." If you are a Perl programmer, this book will help you understand .NET and the vast array of services available to you. You will learn how, through Web services, you can connect to a wide variety of heterogeneous systems using standard Internet protocols. If you are a .NET programmer, you will learn why Perl has become one of the most popular languages in the world and how to access the vast CPAN archive of Perl modules.

Modern Perl Programming

Modern Perl Programming is the Perl programming guide that helps students master all of Perl's most robust features so they can make the most of the language regardless of their experience. Michael Saltzman begins with a rapid-fire tutorial designed to jumpstart novices and give experienced Perl programmers a concise refresher on the language's key features. Then, using real applications (not just code snippets), he helps students gain an in-depth understanding of Perl data types, I/O, control structures, operators, arrays, hashes, and regular expressions. Saltzman then moves on to home-grown subroutines, report writing, accessing system resources, and debugging. Finally, he introduces advanced techniques for working with data structures and references, architecting object-oriented Perl programs, writing network and CGI programs, developing GUIs, and integrating with enterprise databases. All code examples can be downloaded via an ftp site.
