I'm not sure what you're asking. Maybe that's because you don't really know what you need to ask. If you want to learn how to program in perl, it doesn't matter how long the program is except that it is probably easier to start with short programs. You can probably learn it the same way you learned programming in C. If you are asking how to make programs in perl long, I would say make them the same way as you make short programs and don't make programs any longer than they need to be. And then, it depends on what you're programming, because it can make sense to use object oriented programming and/or modules to efficiently create programs which appear much shorter than they actually are. That can have the benefit of re- using the code and/or to put code into separate files so that the whole thing becomes more managable. In a way, it's like using #include in C. Programs, over time, tend to get the more longer than they were to begin with --- no matter the language they're written in --- the less clear and defined their purpose is before you start programming. The clearer and the more defined their purpose is before you start programming, the easier and the shorter they will end up, and the easier and shorter they are, the more manageable they remain. The more manageable they remain, the better, and I dare say that the easier, clearer, shorter and more tightly defined a program is, the better the program is. So I guess if you start worring about learning, just start programming and you'll figure it out, because doing it is the best way to learn it, and you will then know what you need to ask. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: beginners-unsubscr...@perl.org For additional commands, e-mail: beginners-h...@perl.org http://learn.perl.org/
