Day 7. Exploring a Few Longer Examples
To finish up the week, let's take this day to explore some more examples that make use of the techniques you've learned so far. We won't spend a lot of time on background in this lesson, nor will you have any quizzes or exercises to work through at the end. Consider this a brief pause to look at more bits of code in further detail. We'll have three of these example lessons, one after each six or so lessons, to cement what you've learned.
Today we'll look at three Perl scripts:
A new version of stats.pl with a more complex histogram
A script to spell numbers
A script to convert text files into simple Web pages
