Hi Perl Trainers, each Perl class I teach usually contains one or two interested folks who have not spent much time learning about programming. I want to suggest a textbook (not the Llama Book, obviously) that can teach them about programming from the ground up using Perl. What's the favored book for this purpose? I had been suggesting Sams Teach Yourself Perl in 24 hours, which isn't terrible.
Any suggestions? thanks David
