Discover Perl 5

Perl programs are one of the most common ways to implement CGI (Common Gateway Interface) programs. This book is written for beginner programmers and includes extensive coverage of CGI programming in Perl, covering versions 4 and 5. Readers can explore the inner workings of CGI programs, teach themselves how to write and debug Perl programs and learn Perl syntax with the help of real-life stories from people who have been there and mastered the finer points of programming with Perl. The attached CD-ROM includes Perl 5 source and binaries, instructions on how to install Perl 5 on different operating systems (Windows 95, UNIX, etc) and many examples from the book.
