Average Rating: 
Rating:  - One book for most of use
This is the book which led me into the Perl world. It's not the first Perl book I read.

I was not as impressed with the fourth edition, it seems that a lot of the more advanced, and useful, stuff has been moved out of this book into the intermediate book. This book is missing a lot of the features that makes Perl a productive language. I'd ... Read More
