This is one book, you absolutely must read. Even if you don't program in Perl. This is basically the equivalent of SICP for the scripting world.

- thewarrior 13y agoI checked it out after you recommended it in another thread. Its great. Any other recommendations ?
- aswanson 13y agoThanks. I hate looking at perl syntax but will investigate based on this comment.
- auvrw 13y agoit's a really good book, no doubt, but comparing it to sicp is a bit much. if you don't program in perl already, it might be more beneficial to just learn haskell, and writing some functional perl could be a first step toward that goal, particularly if you're coming from a background in C. i read some of if while learning perl because i was already somewhat familiar with functional programming.
