Книга "Effective Perl Programming (Effective Perl Programming)" является жемчужиной книги Perl. Ее авторы, Joseph N. Hall (Джозеф Холл), Randal L. Schwartz являются известными мастерами языка Perl - непосредственные автора "Learning Perl" ("Изучаем Perl") и "Программирование на Perl".
Эта книга - отличное начало для тех, кто хочет научиться писать CGI-npoграммы, обеспечивающие вывод динамически изменяемых данных на веб-сайте, и уже немного знаком с языком Perl, пользующимся большой популярностью среди веб-разработчиков.
Perl has always been a powerful and popular programming language, but with its new object capabilities, it can do even more. Written for anyone with a little Perl experience, Damian Conway's Object Oriented Perl provides an invaluable guide to virtually every aspect of object-oriented programming in Perl.
Many programmers code by instinct, relying on convenient habits or a "style" they picked up early on. They aren't conscious of all the choices they make, like how they format their source, the names they use for variables, or the kinds of loops they use. They're focused entirely on problems they're solving, solutions they're creating, and algorithms they're implementing. So they write code in the way that seems natural, that happens intuitively, and that feels good.
Find a Perl programmer, and you'll find a copy of Perl Cookbook nearby. Perl Cookbook is a comprehensive collection of problems, solutions, and practical examples for anyone programming in Perl.
The book contains hundreds of rigorously reviewed Perl "recipes" and thousands of examples ranging from brief one-liners to complete applications.
Among the many different approaches to "templating" with Perl - such as Embperl, Mason, HTML::Template, and hundreds of other lesser known systems - the Template Toolkit is widely recognized as one of the most versatile. Like other templating systems, the Template Toolkit allows programmers to embed Perl code and custom macros into HTML documents in order to create customized documents on the fly.
