Which Tutorials are Best??? 1

[robherc]

I'm REALLY new to Perl programming and I'm looking for a good, beggining tutorial, I did some 'net searching & found about 200 of them! Does anyone have a personal fav. that you think would help me out? I would GREATLY appreciate some help narrowing this down!

I prefer to use FREE resources whenever possible. (just a note, might help narrow-down the options)

 

[Gargan]

Every installation of Perl comes with over 1000 pages of documentation. If you want free info that's the best you'll get.

But I don't HAVE that info.....I'm getting my PERL pages hosted on SOMEONE ELSE'S server; is there any way I could acces this info from a diff. source?

 

[Gargan]

http://www.perl.com/CPAN/

has all the documentation in online, searchable form.

Thank You very much Gargan....bookmarking that site!

Once you have learned Perl, get the Perl IN A NUTSHELL by O'Reilly. It is great reference book.

I found that <A HREF="

was great for learning basic perl too. I downloaded the pdf file, and learnt from that. Now I can make customised purchasing pages from my website.<br>
