in reply to SAMS Teach Yourself Perl in 24 Hours
If you had started with Learning Perl instead of this book, you'd been cheated of basic information like knowing what references are, or even why you need to know them. Want to read an entire book on Perl and not know how to pass two arrays to a function, or even that you don't know how to do this?
Thought not.
Yes, the Llama book is supposed to be a classic, but the truth is that it is lazily written and misses out even mentioing the existence of many key topics - typically the ones that are trickier to explain.
