Hi Everyone Having took the free course comming from a finance background, with basic webpage writing skills, but no real programming experience, I was interested to learn how perl works. Following the course I now want to learn more as the language is very versitile and I can see how it can be used to create many different applications. The topics the course covered gave a really good introduction to the language and it was free.
