Programming Notes
Mark Jason Dominus’s Higher Order Perl, soon to be available on his Web site, looks like an interesting book, even for people who don’t program in Perl. Damian Conway, author of the OOP book that includes my favorite explanations of non-OOP Perl, loves it.
Google has open-sourced some of its libraries. The initial Python bits aren’t very interesting—people who like the functional style will already have their own similar code—and seems to be geared towards older versions of Python.
