- I was mildly surprised to see that University at the University of
- California at Berkeley is offering a Perl class next quarter (Wednesdays
- 6-9pm in Menlo Parl). It says that "Perl is a new programming language
- that combines the best features of C, awk, sed, and various shell
- programming languages into a powerful and flexible language that is being
- used by more and more people in the UNIX community."
-
- Although many classes provide computer access, this one doesn't so you have
- to have access to a Unix machine. If you don't, and you have a PC, they
- will provide you with an DOS version. I'm sure that if Larry were dead
- he'd be turning in his grave at the thought.
-
- It's in the department of electronic and computer engineering, and they
- haven't yet decided whether to gice academic credit for it.
