"Intermediate Perl" at the Portuguese Perl Workshop

Before the conference, I’m also giving Stonehenge’s “Intermediate Perl” master class on June 4-5. The master class format is a two-day, low-cost format that allows the trainer to attend the the conference. For the Portuguese Perl Workshop, the two day class includes the workshop registration fee and costs €200. Students get a special price of €100. You can register for the class at the same time you register for the workshop.

Perl and the Practical Systems Administrator

Systems administrators are very busy people. Sometimes a bit of common sense programming can go a long way toward eliminating some of the repetitive tasks associated with systems administration. Perl can be used to automate many recurring tasks. AccountCheck is an example Perl script that automatically checks for problems that can occur when user accounts are made and deleted without every necessary step being completed. Partially created or deleted accounts can be a security hazard, acting as hidden doors to let intruders enter a system. Most systems have such hidden doors. This Perl script checks for all the common types of errors that can occur. It checks the following:

How To Patch Perl 5

adds three new features from Perl 6 to Perl 5.12. With recent interest in implementations of dynamic languages on various virtual machines, I thought it interesting to discuss how a feature comes about and how it works — even if you’re a very happy user of Perl or another dynamic language with no desire ever to look inside your favorite implementation, the details can be enlightening.

Programming Perl, 3rd Edition

Very Nice. A definite must have if you program in Perl. This book complements learning Perl so nicely.

Parrot 0.6.2 "Reverse Sublimation" Released (and Perl 6 Progress)

(Perl 6 on Parrot), including better object orientation, placeholder variables, and type checking. Much of this progress is due to two grants, one from the Mozilla Foundation for Patrick Michaud and the other from the Vienna Perl Mongers to Jonathan Worthington. By next month’s release, Rakudo very well may be mature enough that you can use it for your own projects. (IO needs a little work right now, and there are a couple of variable handling and assignment features in progress, but it’s very close.)

Perl: More on Lists and Hashes

Welcome to the first part of what should be the final two articles in our series on working with hashes and lists in Perl. This makes our eleventh article in the series and in it, we will wrap up the intermediate ways of working with hashes and lists. We'll learn to add rows and columns to a two-dimensional list, replace them, create multi-dimensional lists, and write hashes and files to lists, then open and read from those same files over the next two articles.

Using Perl To Handle Mass Mailing In Linux Or Unix

How to Add a Feature to Perl 5

Yesterday’s How to Patch Perl 5 explained the big picture of how to add a new feature to a dynamic language with a virtual machine. Now it’s time to discuss the technical details.

Simple Arithmetic In Bash, Perl and Awk--More Porting

"Today we're going to continue along on our series of posts dealing with porting code between the bash shell, Perl and awk. In previous posts, we've looked at the basics regarding simple string variables, simple one-dimensional arrays and associative arrays (sometimes referred to as hashes or 'lookup tables').

Converting Binary Numbers To Decimal The Hard Way On Linux Or Unix

"The method of execution is not the most efficient, but I think it's the most "human readable." In a future post, we'll definitely convert it to Perl, shell and Awk. And, maybe before then, we'll get to the next part in our ongoing series on Perl, shell and Awk porting. We'll get there eventually. If I didn't have so many different things to write about, I could bore you to tears with that stuff (if I haven't already ;)"
