I used to think that Learning Perl published by O'Reilly was a horrible way to Learn Perl as well but that's because I hated paper. Paper is such a horrible thing. Finally, my girlfriend kept trying to convince me that I should actually read and now that I have, man am I loving it. I wasn't too fond of 2nd edition and apparently Randal wasn't either, hehe. Even he suggested that I obtain the 3rd edition and I'm very glad that I did. Props to my buddy out there. He got Randal to sign it for me! :) No, I would have to say that is I should repent and I guess that what I'm doing now. Maybe I'm going to be a bit unrealistic here but here's the answer. . .
There is no other way to learn. Definitely read Learning Perl 3rd Edition.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
