Barney


Book Description

Bob Wallace is a good man who has just endured a horrifying event. A short time after his daughter died, Bob heads to a local coffee shop to sort out his thoughts. When a stranger approaches his table and asks to join him, Bob has no idea of the man’s motive. As Bob reluctantly listens, the man explains he is seeking out the grief-stricken. His employer has the capability to go back in time and erase people, not just their memory, in order to ease the pain of loss. All he has to do is agree and then the man will disappear, along with any indication that Bob’s daughter ever existed. When Bob refuses, he believes he will never see the man again. But five months later when the man reappears, the torment begins. Barney, who appears to be a likeable fellow, takes Bob on a mind-boggling tour through religion, politics, and morality. But what Bob does not know is that there is more to Barney than he realizes. Barney’s employer is an enigma. He/she has two manifestations: one is beautiful and deadly; the other is suave and charming. Both are evil. Barney is the tale of a grief-stricken middle-aged father’s life-altering experiences after he encounters a charming stranger with a plan.

Learning Perl


Book Description

If you ask Perl programmers today what book they relied on most when they were learning Perl, you'll find that an overwhelming majority will name Learning Perl--also known affectionately as "the Llama." The first edition of Learning Perl appeared in 1993 and has been a bestseller ever since. Written by two of the most prominent and active members of the Perl community, this book is the quintessential tutorial for the Perl programming language.Perl began as a tool for Unix system administrators, used for countless small tasks throughout the workday. It has since blossomed into a full-featured programming language on practically every computing platform, and is used for web programming, database manipulation, XML processing, and (of course) system administration--all this while still remaining the perfect tool for the small daily tasks it was designed for. Perl is quick, fun, and eminently useful. Many people start using Perl because they need it, but they continue to use Perl because they love it.The third edition of Learning Perl has not only been updated for Perl 5.6, but has also been rewritten from the ground up to reflect the needs of programmers learning Perl today. Informed by their years of success at teaching Perl as consultants, the authors have re-engineered the book to better match the pace and scope appropriate for readers trying to get started with Perl, while retaining the detailed discussion, thorough examples, and eclectic wit for which the book is famous.This edition of the Llama includes an expanded and more gently-paced introduction to regular expressions, new exercises and solutions designed so readers can practice what they've learned while it's still fresh in their minds, and an overall reworking to bring Learning Perl into the new millennium.Perl is a language for getting your job done. Other books may teach you to program in Perl, but this book will turn you into a Perl programmer.
