One fo the better books I have run across on Perl.
. Good straight forward examples.. most show the input, the code and the output produced by the code. You need only understand the logic of programming. . . the book fills in the rest you need to know. I have six or seven books on Perl but always reach for this or The Little Black Book for syntax and examples. Invest in a good editor designed for Perl programming like OptiPerl [with syntax checking and debugger] and you will be well on your way!.

Perl by Example

Also, wonderful price! (under $2. Clealy written, and in terms I believe are easily understood by programmers.00).

Perl script examples
Provides numerous examples of perl scripts in each section, plus then the author breaks down line by line what the script does. If you are looking for a book that provides Perl script examples, then this is the book for you. I use this book in conjunction with O'Reilly's Learning Perl. .
