"Practical solutions for rapid Web services development"--Cover.
In its first five years of existence, The Perl Journal ran 247 articles by over 120 authors. Every serious Perl programmer subscribed to it, and every notable Perl guru jumped at the opportunity to write for it. TPJ explained critical topics such as regular expressions, databases, and object-oriented programming, and demonstrated Perl's utility for fields as diverse as astronomy, biology, economics, AI, and games. The magazine gave birth to both the Obfuscated Perl Contest and the Perl Poetry contest, and remains a proud and timeless achievement of Perl during one of its most exciting periods of development.Computer Science and Perl Programming is the first volume of The Best of the Perl Jou...
Is Ajax a new technology, or the same old stuff web developers have been using for years? Both, actually. This book demonstrates not only how tried-and-true web standards make Ajax possible, but how these older technologies allow you to give sites a decidedly modern Web 2.0 feel. Ajax: The Definitive Guide explains how to use standards like JavaScript, XML, CSS, and XHTML, along with the XMLHttpRequest object, to build browser-based web applications that function like desktop programs. You get a complete background on what goes into today's web sites and applications, and learn to leverage these tools along with Ajax for advanced browser searching, web services, mashups, and more. You discov...
Many programmers would love to use Perl for projects that involve heavy lifting, but miss the many traditional algorithms that textbooks teach for other languages. Computer scientists have identified many techniques that a wide range of programs need, such as: Fuzzy pattern matching for text (identify misspellings!)Finding correlations in dataGame-playing algorithmsPredicting phenomena such as Web trafficPolynomial and spline fitting Using algorithms explained in this book, you too can carry out traditional programming tasks.
* Perl 6 is not going to be available for quite a while, but, there is enormous interest in the Perl community (Perl use=14% and succeeds Linux and PHP in popularity) about its features and coding style / Many Perl 6-isms are suitable for production code and serious software development. * Most up-to-date text possible on the Perl language. * Walters assists with bimonthly Phoenix Perl Mongers user group meetings, often presenting. Presentations include demonstrations of his CPAN modules, current topics in software engineering, object-oriented programming techniques, information security, peer to peer architecture, ecommerce with credit card gateways, and other topics.
The 2001 classic - available in eBook formats for the first time Perl Debugged provides the expertise and solutions developers require for coding better, faster, and more reliably in Perl. Focusing on debugging, the most vexing aspect of programming in Perl, this example-rich reference and how-to guide minimizes development, troubleshooting, and maintenance time resulting in the creation of elegant and error-free Perl code. Designed for the novice to intermediate software developer, Perl Debugged will save the programmer time and frustration in debugging Perl programs. Based on the authors’ extensive experience with the language, this book guides developers through the entire programming p...
* The first book focused solely on data parsing, a task commonly deemed Perl’s greatest strength * Couples an introduction to data parsing concepts and techniques with practical instruction regarding the key Perl modules capable of facilitating often complex parsing tasks * The author, Christopher Frenz, is a bioinformaticist and expert on Perl and scientific computing
This book presents revised full versions of the best papers accepted for the SCM-4 and SCM-5 Workshops on Software Configuration Management, held in connection with the 1994 and 1995 IEEE International Conference on Software Engineering (ICSE). The 22 papers included give a unique overview on and introduction to current software configuration management issues. SCM is the discipline of managing software evolution. It is concerned with controlling evolving software products and supporting teams and activities involved in the development of complex software systems. SCM attracts the attention of SE design and development professionals, of researchers, and of software managers.
Containing the complete CPAN as well as other Perl resources, the CD-ROM in this set was created by the author because there were no other products available that he recommended. Printed materials include the complete documentation on the 150 most important Perl modules.
