On Friday, February 5, 2010 at Frozen Perl, I’m teaching a new master class based on our book, Effective Perl Programming, 2nd Edition. The master class is a low-cost, condensed class format given at a public Perl event. The cost of this one-day class is $100, and there are a limited number of $25 seats for full-time students.
In the one-day class for intermediate Perl programmers, I’ll cover selected topics from the book, including:
- Working with Unicode in Perl
- Tricks with filehandles
- New regex features in Perl 5.10 and later
- Playing with
pack - Using closures to make things simpler
- and other topics as time allows
Although the book hasn’t been published yet, it is available for pre-order on Amazon, and attendees to the class can get a sneak peek at the working manuscript as well as a soft copy of the course slides.
