There Is More Than One Way To Do It How I did it (not necessarily in this order):
I still have a long way to go. There are so many different avenues to explore, both within the realm of Perl, and the broader realm of Computer Science. But it's been a thoroughly enjoyable experience. If I've rushed it, it hasn't been with the intent of "getting up to speed quickly", it's been a mad dash of enthusiasm tempered with a desire to be thorough and accurate in my learning; I've enjoyed every minute of it. There's so much more to be learned... :) Update: Woops, in my excitement, I just gave you the twelve-month approach. ;) Seriously, start with merlyn's Llama book and the Alpaca book (Learning Perl, and Perl Objects, References & Modules). Then move on to the Camel book and the POD. After that, choose books based on what attracts (or demands) your attention next. Update 2:One more thing: Thanks for all the encouragement since I first showed up here, everyone! Dave
