Perl Tools : A Guide to Streamlining and Automating the Software Development Process Using Perl

More than just a discussion of Perl -- a programming language designed to handle a variety of system administrator functions -- this book guides Perl users through tool development from beginning to end. Organizing the development process is the basis of the book, which moves to more advanced materials on computer graphics interfaces, handling databases, and command line automation. Programmers learn how to turn their software development process into a smooth-running, well-documented process that will get work done rather than get in the way. The practical ways to bring toot development under control and to proceed with the development of reusable and effective tools without sacrificing maintainability outlined in the book will benefit software developers, programmers, IT developers, and team leaders.Murray, Brad J. is the author of 'Perl Tools : A Guide to Streamlining and Automating the Software Development Process Using Perl', published 2000 under ISBN 9781884777967 and ISBN 1884777961.
