Perl Mongers,
There will be a Purdue Perl Mongers meeting at 6pm, Tuesday, September 10
in MSEE B-12. The presentation will last one hour. Redistribute this
notice if you'd like.
Mark Senn [1] will critique an existing Perl 5 [2] program and
o make improvements to it
o discuss possibile improvements that really aren't
o rewrite the program using new features in Perl 6 [3]
Prosper [4] will be used to for the presentation.
So, come if you are ny of the following
o are interested in Perl
o would like to know how to program better in Perl 5
o want to know about some of the new features under development in Perl 6
(I expect other languages will start using these new features also)
o are interested in a free and open alternative to Microsoft PowerPoint
that produces better output, runs on more platforms, and does
animation
