This book isn't meant to be a complete reference book for Perl. Keeping a copy of Programming Perl handy will let you look up exact definitions of operators, keywords, functions, pragmata, or modules. Alternatively, every Perl installation comes with a voluminous collection of searchable, online reference materials.As with a traditional cookbook, we expect you to access this book more or less at random. When you want to learn how to do something, you'll look up its recipe. Even if the exact solutions presented don't fit your problem exactly, they'll give you ideas about possible approaches.
