Rating: Holy crap, does this book rule? I think so! Learning Perl is the best programming book out there, and I've read a lot. Well, actually, all of these O'Reilly programming books kick ass. Learning Perl is made for that Unix user who knows what he/she is doing - and wants to do even more, and easier. Learning Perl is an excellent "beginning step" in this process, as after reading this book you can read all of the various books in the O'Reilly Perl universe. And after that, you can also create some awesome Internet applications that can pay the bills while you fool around all day with this Perl stuff that is completely awesome and addictive and makes sense better than anything I've seen. Man, I'm stoked. Perl kicks ass and Learning Perl is the best. All of those people who just said that the book is "difficult for beginners" and crap need to be shot, as I'm a teenager and this book is easy like cake to me. Believe me, if you find this book hard, please give up on any future in computers you might be envisioning as there aren't any real computer books easier than this. Buy this book and never look at life the same way! Well,... at least .... Never look at your monitor the same way again! =)
