Learn Perl 5 By Doing It

A really widespread Perl overview for those who are new to the language! Full of application examples and step-by-step tutorials, which are easy to follow.

The course has too much information about editors, I was not able to install eclipse. I was not able to run my Hello world using the cmd

I really enjoyed this course. The content is well structured and supplies all the necessary information with enough detail to equip the student with the knowledge to continue learning in the areas specific to their needs.

A really good online course. It gives the necessary knowledge to be able to do a lot of stuff but also to have the background to search on your own for more topics. Really a plus that he was coding live, personally I can understand and learn much more with this method than with videos which tutor has the code ready and only comments it. Be aware that you should have some basic knowledge of programming before starting the course (which is actually a benefit as you don't spend time in really basic stuff but useful ones).

Getting to the halfway point... the last few tutorials (29+) have been a bit scattered and not directly focused on any one element. They're useful, but if you're looking for how to use that Perl subroutine, or Perl functionality, it's not quite clear ... hopefully that all gets cleared up and he goes back to the normal lessons. Just an observation as we get here. Until we got to 28 or 29, I was happy with the lessons!

Adecuado para personas con conocimientos previos en programación que se sienten cómodos con este formato de educación.

This course was an excellent match for me. The instructor was very easy to follow as he explained the material and the examples.

John from caveofprogramming looks a very good tutor. It would have been good if we would have see some more vedios of cgi programming and oops programming. Only very basics are covered in cgi and oops but the explanation is very good and that us why i request John to add some more vedios for them.

Quite nice to explain the "sub main()" thing, not seen this in other tutorials. Upon going further, contrary to what some say that the author is repeating the same subject, it seems to serve the purpose. It's easy to pick up one subject after a couple of days without having to remember what was said previously. The lecturer is calm, explains every aspect of each method in great detail and I think this is the best training I've seen so far. I tried other tutorials, where the lecturer jumps into a whole lot of coding without explaining the intricacies of the concept. Good work, thank you.

yeah that's all good. but need some basic info too.. like how the strings and variables works in perl..

The teacher is talking to much (repeating same things over and over), course not well prepared (organized), making a 16 minutes video while it could be done bellow 5 minutes (Making students loosing crucial time).

About 20% concluded and excellent material and course up to now! Looking forward for the remaining of the course :)

It's a good course, but it's a bit out of date, the author is using Windows 7 we are now on Windows 11, I personally use Windows 10. Also the newest versions of PERL are downloadable in non-executable format, you have to fish around for an older executable format. The PERL package manager (PPM) is not available on the newest versions of PERL they have switched to State tool on Active PERL to download the latest packages. The course needs major updating! It's a bit frustrating finding out all this yourself when it should be provided for you!

Ha sido muy útil para aprender Perl. Como fallos, diría que el profesor habla un poco lento (se soluciona poniendo los videos a 1.5x) y que no se prepara suficientemente las lecciones antes de hacer cada vídeo. Pero en general bastante bien.

Highly functional examples, content is well explained. This course requires one (as John states at the beginning) to be quite comfortable with programming first.
