Perl Course in San Francisco

Our advanced Perl course in San Francisco targets the topics that add tremendous power to the language but can be hard to understand: pattern-matching, modules, references, and object-oriented programming.

Combining these tools enables you, for example, to use a Perl module to connect to and manipulate data in a database.

This Perl training is the last two days of the five-day Perl bootcamp in San Francisco . In this course, we teach you to:

Use pattern-matching to see if a pattern is contained in a chunk of text
Retrieve the instance of the pattern that was found and perform replacements on it
Find one or more, or even zero or more, instances of a pattern
Create references and anonymous references: single-value variables referring to the memory location of other variables or subroutines
Dereference references to retrieve a value or call a subroutine
Write object-oriented syntax in Perl scripts that use object-oriented modules
Create your own modules with the "package" statement
Create methods and properties for your module's objects
Find and install modules from ActiveState's extensive module repository
Connect to, query and update databases using the DBI module
Output a database recordset as XML
and much more! See full outline for our advanced Perl course
