Description

This course is all about Perl programming language. This is a beginner level course, where you will learn Perl programming from scratch. As you proceed to the later sections of the course, you will learn some of the advanced concepts in Perl. Although Perl is considered an old programming language, but it has some of the best Text processing capabilities compared to other languages. Perl is a newer language when compared to C, but people do consider C as a foundational language that gives you far lesser option on Text Processing and Server side development. Nobody in the world uses C for writing backend server side scripts, but Perl has been very popular in this category since long time. In most recent time, Perl is again getting attention by the developer communities.

This course is divided into multiple sections. The course begins with Perl datatypes and operators, moving towards conditionals and loops. You would also learn Pattern Matching with Regular Expressions, and server-side programming with CGI-PERL. You would also learn various debugging options, and deployment of PERL programs, and modules with Perl compiler with various example programs.

We would cover topics such as Scalars, Boolean, strings, lists, mathematical operators, assignment operators, conditional operators, loops like while, for, foreach, do while, until, do until, and more with if else conditionals, control structures and Subroutines. Regular expression would be a broad category where various types of expressions in form of query could be generated and provided text operation is performed like searching, inserting, replacing, counting, on either STDIN, or external file.

We would learn to create useful CGI-PERL scripts for backend or server-side implementation of any web application or website, where we can retrieve information from html form, write back html pages, write emails, etc.

Various example programs for PERL in all the topics covered and provided with a downloadable zip file, that could be used by students to develop complex PERL applications.

What You Will Learn!

  • On completion of this course you could write complex PERL programs.
  • You could develop CGI-PERL backend scripts for your website/web applications.

  • Develop various application on PERL for Windows, Linux, and Mac environments.

Who Should Attend!

  • Anyone who is passionate about learning PERL programming, be it Regular Expression for text analysis, CGI for web development, and simple PERL concepts.
