Perl in a Nutshell

By Ellen Siever, Stephen Spainhour & Nathan Patwardhan; ISBN 1-56592-286-7, 674 pages, First Edition, December 1998

Perl is a programming language that is useful. By this, we mean that people don't learn Perl just because they think they should, they learn Perl because they want to get something done.

This book is for Perl programmers who need to get things done. It's for readers who have dabbled a little in Perl and want a single reference for all their needs. This book is part reference, part guide to the world of Perl. We cover the language itself, but also the Perl modules that are most popular - modules for CGI, database manipulation, network programming, graphical interfaces, and Win32 integration.
