A couple problems here:
1) PERL is not written in ALL CAPS because..
2) ..it is not an acronym and hasn't been quite a few years now.
3) Also that is the wrong acronym anyway. It's actually "Practical
extraction and reporting language".
This makes me wonder about the quality of such a course when the
description is not even close with respect to such simple little
things.
