Programming Perl, 2nd Edition by Larry Wall, Tom Christiansen, and Randal Schwartz This errata page lists errors outstanding in the most recent printing. If you have technical questions or error reports, you can send them to booktech@oreilly.com. Please specify the printing date of your copy. This page was updated June 22, 2000. Here's a key to the markup: [page-number]: serious technical mistake {page-number}: minor technical mistake : important language/formatting problem (page-number): language change or typo ?page-number?: reader question or request for clarification Confirmed errors: (56) last paragraph reads: "It you're trying to do variable interpolation..." Should read: "If you're trying to do variable interpolation..." (94) "Logical and, or, not, and xor": Please move this section to be closer to the "Bitwise Operators" section. (When I was searching for a logical equivalent to "^", I didn't even see this section, because the section after "Bitwise Operators" lists And and Or.) (119) In para 2, all lines have space between a function name and its opening parenthesis. (See Page 547, below.) (145-242) Perl Functions in Alphabetical Order It's hard to search for the function you want. Please either list the function in the Table of Contents, or change the heading to list the first or last function on the page. I suggest the same thing for: pages 76- 94, Operators, and pages 378-516, Library Modules. (148) In para. 6, line 1: "Alternately" should be "Alternatively"
