[Pdx-pm] October meeting in two weeks -- lists and then some

[Seven till Seven]

Wed. October 13th, 6:53pm at FreeGeek -- 1731 SE 10th Ave.

Practical Lists / Utilities pulled from Fennec

 speaker: Chad Granum 

Chad will give 2 shorter talks in a row. The first talk will deal with 
lists, what they are, how to use them. The second talk is a short 
presentation on several useful tools/utilities that started as part of 
the Fennec project but have been pulled out for general use.

Practical Lists
 Chad will define what a list is and how it differs from an array. He
 will cover tools such as grep and map, as well as some List::Util
 functions. He will explain how you may start using lists in more places
 when you understand how they work.

Utilities pulled from Fennec
 Fennec was a large undertaking, it also required implementing a few new
 ideas. Many of the new ideas are useful outside of the Fennec project.
 Chad will cover the following until he runs out of time:
   Exporter::Declare
   Method::Workflow
   Child
   Exodist::Util
   Devel::CallerStack

As always, the meeting will be followed by social hour at the LuckyLab.
