Summary: CIW Perl Fundamentals Part 2: Manipulating Scripts CBT Train
Review: Course Overview
This is the second course in a three part series that students will learn both theoretical and practical instruction on external data Perl scripts. This course will also cover regular expressions and pattern matching, subroutines, and file access and manipulation.

Learn To

Identify the syntax of pattern binding operators.
Match metacharacters with their functions.
Identify the syntax of character classes.
Identify characteristics of subroutines.
Identify the syntax used to invoke a subroutine.
Identify the syntax used to return values from a subroutine.
Identify characteristics of filehandles.
Identify characteristics of the open function.
