Beginning Perl 6: From Novice to Professional (Beginning: from Novice to Professional) 3rd Edition


Perl 6, the long-awaited next release of one of the world's most popular programming languages, has come to fruition after more than seven years. A complete redesign of its predecessor, Perl 6 represents a massive rethinking of both language internals and features, and will grant both the language developers and users a level of unheralded flexibility and power. However, taking advantage of these new features comes at the cost of a steep learning curve. Beginning Perl 6 is the first book to offer both newcomers to the language and seasoned developers alike the definitive resource to Perl, with special emphasis on the version 6 release.
