1.4. Other materials

In addition to these notes, you should have a copy of the required text book for this course: \textbf{Programming Perl} (2nd ed.) by Schwartz, Wall, and Christiansen (published by O'Reilly and Associates) -- more commonly referred to as "the Camel book". The Camel book will be used throughout the day, and will be a valuable reference to take home and keep next to your computer.

You will also have received a floppy disk containing these notes in HTML form (with working links to external resources etc) and all the example scripts and data used in this course.

Lastly, you will have been given a nametag with your name and company on the front, and a username and password on the back.
