To clarify ( and to put my Purdue addr into this list ), I'm seconding both the moving of the December meeting AND the permanent moving of the meeting time to 6pm. It was moved out for me in the first place, so it seems fair. -- Dave Jacoby - jacoby at purdue.edu "What I cannot create, Purdue Genomics Core I do not understand."

From westerman at purdue.edu Wed Dec 3 10:29:43 2008 From: westerman at purdue.edu (Rick Westerman) Date: Wed, 03 Dec 2008 13:29:43 -0500 Subject: [Purdue-pm] Tech meeting moved to Tuesday Dec. 16th Message-ID: <4936D017.2070600@purdue.edu> Due to scheduling conflicts we have changed the date of the December meeting from Tuesday Dec. 9th to Tuesday Dec. 16th. Usual location in ME 119. We have also changed the time from 6:30 PM to 6:00 PM. Future meetings will also start at 6:00 but will be continued to be held on the 2nd Tuesday of the month. As for the agenda for the Dec. 16th meeting, we hope to have two different MVC (model-view-controller) instances of the same database: Dave will be presenting his work on Catalyst. I will present my work using CGI::Application (aka, 'Titanium') I hope that by using the same database we will be able to compare and contrast the two ways of doing MVC. Both talks should take around 1/2 hour each. Thus there will be some time for short presentations by other people. Let me know if you want to be on the agenda. -- Rick Westerman westerman at purdue.edu Bioinformatics specialist at the Genomics Facility.

As a side note, I found Mark Dominus' quote back from 2007 rather amusing: "I usually imagine that Perl will end up in pretty much the same place as COBOL. It will be dead, but it will still be wandering around, eating brains. The aging Perl programmer community will point at the festering, animated corpse and say "Perl is more robust than ever! Look at those maggots wiggling in the eye sockets!" And the rest of the world will make jokes like "No, Perl's not dead; it just smells that way." I'd like to be wrong. -- Mark Dominus " -- Rick From mdw at purdue.edu Wed Dec 10 08:03:32 2008 From: mdw at purdue.edu (Mark Daniel Ward) Date: Wed, 10 Dec 2008 11:03:32 -0500 Subject: [Purdue-pm] Higher Order Perl In-Reply-To: <493FD42C.30802@purdue.edu> References: <493FD42C.30802@purdue.edu> Message-ID: <493FE854.3010908@purdue.edu> Dear Joe, I haven't used this book by Dominus.... but it's probably very nice. I wanted to point out that Purdue subscribes to the O'Reilly books (there are many on Perl!), so that you can read them free through the library's web site, if you like the electronic version. This won't help if you prefer the dead-tree version, as you call it.

I've got Windows responding when I double-click or call my perl program via PowerShell, but when I run it via shell, it pops up it's own shell, runs, then pops away. I really want it to run within my terminal window instead, which is the wrong behavior. I remember Joe talking up Strawberry, so I'm hoping he can point me right. -- David Jacoby jacoby.david at gmail.com
