I'm an ICT Tech at a local school, this involves website design and management, network maintenance including sys admin. I've always wanted to learn a programming language and perl seems to fit the bill perlfectly (scuse!). Got sams teach yourself in 24ish hours before xmas, started working through it coped ok but some sections seemed vague. Have ordered the Llama in in the hope that this will be more concise. Llama came today (3rd ed Chris) totally re-written hardly never mentions c, awk, sed etc. New excercises, brilliant, wonderful. Cant believe how much I'm enjoying learning this stuff. anyway, hi group. jimf From jimf at ntlworld.com Sat Jan 5 17:25:00 2002 From: jimf at ntlworld.com (Jim Farrow (ntl)) Date: Wed Aug 4 00:10:55 2004 Subject: Just to say hello.

Book review! :-) Nicholas Clark From chrisb at jesmond.demon.co.uk Mon Jan 7 13:46:57 2002 From: chrisb at jesmond.demon.co.uk (Chris Benson) Date: Wed Aug 4 00:10:55 2004 Subject: Just to say hello. -> Book reviews In-Reply-To: <20020107102743.A368@Bagpuss.unfortu.net> References: <02010523250007.01975@greybox.home.org> <20020107102743.A368@Bagpuss.unfortu.net> Message-ID: <20020107194657.A23558@gamma.home> Hi Nick On Mon, Jan 07, 2002 at 10:27:43AM +0000, nick@unfortu.net wrote: > > Book review!

I haven't done it yet, but I guess I'll post it here first :-) Book reviews would be useful though -- Tom Christiansen's reviews page seems to be dormant so new views of new books would be v.useful. I'm busy setting up new machines at the moment.. But here's my Perl favourites. * Programming Perl (1st ed.) the best computer book since ... K&R's CPL, and The Elements of Programming Style. * Programming Perl (2nd ed.) lost much of the wit, humour and usability of the 1st ed. Much more reference material, duplication the on-line docs. * Object Oriented Perl, the best book since Programming Perl 1st ed. * Network Programming with Perl, is complete and well written, but just like Stevens' "Unix Network Programming" with Perl instead of C. ... that's all the Perl books I hold an opinion on at the moment. -- Chris Benson From support at blackjackshack.com Mon Jan 28 14:22:06 2002 From: support at blackjackshack.com (support@blackjackshack.com) Date: Wed Aug 4 00:10:55 2004 Subject: Worlds First Player vs Player Blackjack Message-ID: <03b3b4902221c12STATION@station.blackjackstation.com> This message can only be viewed in HTML -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
