Re: Learning now coding in Perl :-)

["Javier Candeira" <javier@candeira.com>]

What is the nearest Perl equivalent to _Dive into Python_?

I mean a smart, terse book on how to code in Perl for people with some
coding experience (no "variables are different from constants"), but
who still need some overarching narrative structure that man pages
will always be too fragmentary or exhaustive to have.

For those who don't know it, Dive into Python can be described into an
extended tutorial: it starts with a running program that is actually
useful, and teaches Python programming by explaining how the program
works. Every two chapters a new, more complex program is introduced,
and so on.

Is there a Perl textbook that follows this pattern?
