Who Should Attend:
Programmers who want to hone their existing Perl programming skills for quick prototyping, system utilities, software tools, system management tasks, database access, and World Wide Web programming, using features and facilities from the latest release of Perl, the 5.005 release.

You should have taken a course in beginning Perl programming or have read Learning Perl, 2nd Edition (1997, O'Reilly & Associates). You should also have several months experience in basic scripting with Perl and basic screen editing and file manipulation on a Unix system.

This is the first of two courses that take you through advanced Perl control and data structures. Advanced Perl Programming I and II are designed to be taken one after the other, although this is not a requirement.

Course Outline:

• Exceptions
• References
• Data-structures
• Modules
• Objects
