[grand-rapids-pm-list] UPDATE: Introduction to Perl

[Matthew Heusser]

We're going to run the meeting in the computer labs at Priority Health, so the class will be hands-on and interactive.  You will solve real problems in perl through the class, so it's going to be a fun, fast-paced, meaningful introduction to Perl, not just a lecture on the semantics of the eval() statement. :-)

Please feel free to forward this to others who you think may be interested.  If you can make the meeting, you might want to RSVP to Matt Hahnfeld <matt.hahnfeld at gmail.com>, so he can be certain to get enough pizza.

I'm off to go scrounge up some door prizes,

 Subject: [grand-rapids-pm-announce] April Perl Mongers -- Introduction to Perl
 
 April's Grand Rapids Perl Mongers meeting is just a few short weeks away...
 
 This month's meeting will be an introduction to Perl! We'll teach you everything you need to know about the Perl language, from basic Perl syntax to how to use the Perl interpreter.  If you're new to Perl or just need to re-learn the basics, this is the meeting to attend.  If
you have friends or coworkers who want to learn more about Perl, this is the meeting to drag 'em to.

 The meeting will be held at Priority Health (1239 E. Beltline NE, Grand Rapids Township) at 11:30am on Friday, April 29th, 2005.  Matt Heusser of Excelon Development will be heading up the training, with other Perl experts jumping in to share their expertise on the various aspects of Perl.
 
 Training will last approximately 1.5 hours.  Everyone is welcome to attend -- "membership" in Perl Mongers is not required.  There is no charge.

 As usual, we'll provide a pizza lunch to everyone who attends.  Yeah, that's FREE training and FREE lunch!

 By the way, next month's meeting will be a great follow-up to this month, with Chuck Dryer of Prioriy Health doing a presentation on the Perl Debugger.  Stay tuned for more information.

 If you have any questions, feel free to send me an e-mail...  See y'all there!
 
 Matt Hahnfeld
 President
 Grand Rapids Perl Mongers

"The product wasn't planned and built, it was envisioned and evolved.  Alias didn't start with anticipated architectures, plans, and detailed specifications-it began with a vision followed shortly by the first iteration of the product.  The product, the architecture, the plans, and the specifications evolved as the team adapted to the ever-unfolding reality of the market and the technology." - Jim Highsmith, Agile Project Management, Pg. 2
