Description
Publishing Rationale - Perl Modules ("packages" of Perl code) save programmers time: ready-to-use packages of code (modules) cut down programming time. - Modules range from simple to more complex: formatting text paragraphs, converting time, fetching and passing an XML document, accessing and posting stock quotes, etc. - Instant Perl Modules rounds out Osborne's offerings to all levels and types of Perl programmers - from the beginner (Perl: A Beginner's Guide) to advanced (Perl Developer's Guide). - Big market (over one million+ Perl programmers) with no direct competition.
