Subject: SPUG: The ABC-s of Perl
SPUG,
I'm giving a presentation this week at a local university entitled
"Intro to Perl for Unix C Programmers". My talk will include a section
on the "ABC-s of Perl" and "Perl's Top 10 Features". I would like to
your ideas on these.
The ABC-s is a list of words describing or pertaining to Perl. Try not
to use words like "Cool" which could pertain to anything. I'll want
about 3 words for each letter of the alphabet.
Please fill in as many blanks as you can.
Problem letters so far are: A, B, J, K, N, Q, V, X, Y, Z
Thanks in advance for your ideas,
Brian
