This took longer than I expected, but the draft of the Modern Perl book is available for review. I'm especially interested in hearing from people who don't consider themselves expert Perl 5 programmers. The goal of the book is to explain how Perl 5 works (and how to write Perl 5 effectively) to help novices become adepts.
Amazing job!!
I'm looking forward to directing people to this book!
Hi
In The Perl Philosophy, you have:
my @all_results = some_expensive_operation();
I thing you need an explicit statement (or a comment at the end of that line), saying that in Perl, '@' means all_results is an array.
It's only much later in the book that you explain this.
