Perl Design Patterns - Free Book

Posted by Hemos on Sunday June 22, 2003 @11:01PM from the learning-more-about-it dept.

Scott Walters writes "Perl programmers and Java programmers have a lot to learn from each other. Perl 5 is providing more and more optional stricture, and Perl 6 is expected to provide stricture by default and other goodies as type safety. Perhaps better named "Stupid Perl Object Tricks", Perl Design Patterns proves that a little design, a little computer science, and some style are nothing to fear. This is dedicated to all of the newbies screaming, "The code is fine! Just tell me what the bug is!", and to all of the talented programmers who think Perl deserves a better reputation. Object::PerlDesignPatterns on CPAN is updated less often but has a fatter pipe."

Re:Can someone fix the URL in the story ? by scrottie · 2003-06-23 01:09 · Score: 5, Interesting

Sorry, I'm a highass. I type the URL all the time, but I botch it this once. I tested the link as directed by the instructions, and Mozilla silently fixed it. Stupid protecting me from my stupidity so I don't even know I'm stupid until too late... anyway thanks to Slashdot for putting the story through. And, no, I'll be amazed if slowass.net survives. If the pages doesn't load, the machine is an Apple Mac 7300/180, 180mhz 604e (pre-G3) with 32 megs of RAM. On a slow day, it is overloaded. An idle CPU is the playground of the devil! Okey folks, flame away. -scott
