Perl is often known as the Swiss army knife of programming languages.

Perl Programming in easy steps, 2nd edition illustrates programming basics with variables, operators, and functions before moving on to demonstrate the creation of reusable Perl modules. It then shows how Perl can read and write files on your system. Object-Oriented Programming (OOP) with Perl is demonstrated next to emulate real-world object properties and behaviors.

The examples in Perl Programming in easy steps, 2nd edition demonstrate how to store and retrieve data with the SQLite database module that is often bundled alongside the standard Perl library. The book then moves on to illustrate how Perl is used for server-side CGI scripting on the internet. A final example brings together Perl for CGI and SQLite to create an online shop.
