Re: [TCLUG:11227] learning perl/python

[Clay Fandre <cfandre@maddog.mn-linux.org>]

I took an 'Introduction to Perl' at SANS '98 taught by (perl guru) Tom
Christianson. Highly recommended. Even though I have been using perl
since '96 I learned a lot of tricks and short-cuts that I still remember
today. I suppose it all depends on who is teaching the class.
