This 5-day hands on Perl programming course provides a thorough introduction to the Perl programming language, teaching attendees how to develop and maintain portable scripts useful for system management, data manipulation, and Web CGI programming. Emphasis is placed on built-in subroutines that can be used to help conveniently build fast, portable and efficient scripts. Extensive hands on exercises provide practice in report creation, pattern matching, string manipulation, file I/O, command line processing, and debugging. Students are shown how to extend Perls basic functionality with packages and loadable modules. The final day encompasses CGI scripting with Perl as well as database access using the DBI module. Attendees are shown how to validate form data, how to perform robust database access, and how to generate HTML output in order to create a dynamic web site. Attendees who do not need or want in-depth coverage of CGI scripting and DBI should attend HOTTs Perl Scripting course instead. Prerequisites: Prior scripting experience or knowledge of fundamental programming concepts. For CGI programming, knowledge of HTML fundamentals and SQL is helpful but not required.
