Title: This book has problems...
Review: Serious problems... The first example the author gives you is an auto-mall program... WITHOUT telling you what any of the syntax means... that is the most rediculous thing in the world!Someone who knows nothing about Perl would be turned off right then and there. That's what happened with me... I put the book down and said 'the hell with Perl!".Then I wanted to write something that would've been ideally suited for Perl. I told a couple of guys at work and they told me to pick up 'Programming Perl' and 'Learning Perl' by O'Reilly and am I GLAD I did!DON'T buy this book... you'll only be frustrated with it... get the O'Reilly books instead... you'll be glad you did!
