To learn perl, you have to spend hours and hours studying books/docs/examples, thinking, trying etc.
Depends on your own individual learning style. Some folk would breeze through the perldocs. Personally, I feel that they read like stereo instructions. I've got a shelf full of books but the only one that really helped was Perl in Easy Steps. Many authors write their knowledge in the way they understand it. This doesn't always help the person who is reading their knowledge though.
The "problem" with Perl is that it is different from most other programming languages. With most languages there are a few ways to achieve the same result. With Perl, there seems to be more than a few - especially when you have shortcuts of shortcuts of shortcuts.
As we all learn in different ways, some will understand these shortcuts just by reading about them. Others will need to see examples that have in depth explanations, whilst another section will only get their head around it by creating their own apps and trial and error.
I've already learnt a lot just by reading the replies to the questions - but most still go over my head (and I'm no stranger to programming). I'm just grateful for the help I've already been given.
