HANDS-ON

Introduction to Perl Programming

X416.7 (1 semester unit in EECS)

An elective in the Certificate Program in UNIX/Linux System Administration and in the Professional Sequence in Database Management

Perl is widely used by UNIX and Windows programmers, system administrators, and Web and database programmers. It is an easy-to-learn, extremely powerful extensible language with add-on modules for almost every kind of task imaginable. Perhaps its most powerful feature is that Perl programs run on any operating system with few, if any, changes needed. On successful completion, you should be able to write, debug, and understand more complicated Perl programs.

Prerequisites: Familiarity with UNIX or Windows and experience with a programming language.
