Has anyone checked out the free Perl course at http://code.he.net/ to

i will check it out later tonight. i use he.net so i have a small amount
of connection with them.
blechh. it is a trivial thing and i wouldn't even call it a course. all
it does is have a perl prompt and show you a line of code to enter. i
just cut/paste them and it prints the expected result and i pass that
question. no docs, notes, explanations, variations or anything but
entering the shown code. useless IMNSHO. it even goes too fast as in 11
array questions it gets into slicing, split and join by the end. you
can't jump to those without real understanding of some perl basics. i
would recommend some good books, the perl docs and even the o'reilly
college for much better training. i will be calling he.net and give them
my feedback on this.
