I will be running some classes for my work on Perl. These will be for developers fresh from school who have never used Perl before. I would appreciate if I could get some suggestions as to items to be sure to address.
Will obviously be covering the use strict ans warnings.
First session(s) will be mainly dealing with reading Perl, as some my other team members will be there for learning how to port exisitng Perl scripts to Python, but eventually new development will be covered.
Our normal Perl usage is for small scripts and interal web services.
Thank you

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).

Want more info? How to link
or How to display code and escape characters
are good places to start.
