Programming Perl - Tom Christiansen

Descriere Programming Perl - Tom Christiansen

The 4th edition has been thoroughly updated for version 5.14, with details on regular expressions, support for UNICODE, threads, and many other features. Many Perl books explain typeglobs, pseudohashes, and closures, but only this one shows the motivations behind these features and why they work the way they do. \n \nAdopted as the undisputed Perl bible soon after the first edition appeared in 1991, Programming Perl is still the go-to guide for this highly practical language. Perl began life as a super-fueled text processing utility, but quickly evolved into a general purpose programming language that's helped hundreds of thousands of programmers, system administrators, and enthusiasts, like you, get your job done.\n \nIn this much-anticipated update to the Camel, three renowned Perl authors cover the language up to its current version, Perl 5.14, with a preview of features in the upcoming 5.16. In a world where Unicode is increasingly essential for text processing, Perl offers the best and least painful support of any major language, smoothly integrating Unicode everywhere--including in Perl's most popular feature: regular expressions.\n \nImportant features covered by this update include: \n \n- New keywords and syntax \n- I/O layers and encodings \n- New backslash escapes \n- Unicode 6.0 \n- Unicode grapheme clusters and properties \n- Named captures in regexes \n- Recursive and grammatical patterns \n- Expanded coverage of CPAN \n- Current best practices
