Book Review: Perl Best Practices
Reinhard Voglmaier
The Perl programming language stands for absolute liberty to the programmer. This means there are no two Perl programmers who would write the same software in the same way. You can write “object oriented” programs in Perl if you want. Or you can write in a procedural way or use a constraint-based approach. Even if you choose the object-oriented method, you have many choices on how to implement objects. You can implement objects as anonymous hashes, like the majority of object-oriented Perl programmers, or you can use anonymous scalars, as Damian Conway shows in this book, and so on.

Certification: Changes to SCLP and other Certifications
Emmett Dulaney
As summer winds down, a number of vendors are in full swing making changes to their existing Linux/Unix certifications. In the recent past, I ’ve looked at the changes underway at CompTIA in regard to the Linux+ certification. It is undergoing an update and overhaul aimed to make it more timely and relevant. This is far from the only certification currently getting such scrutiny.
This month, the biggest transformation I’ll present is what is happening to the SCLP certification that just went live. I’ll also look at some other vendor’s changes, including additional changes at CompTIA, and try to bring everything that is happening in certification up to date.

Regular Expressions: Rexx Still Going Strong
Cameron Laird, Kathryn Soraiz
Because you're compulsive about four-letter names.
Or because you're a refugee from the orphanages of OS/2 or Amiga, who likes the reliability of Unix, but misses a few more friendly faces. Or because you're curious about how good a lightweight language can be after a quarter century of refinement. Or because you have responsibilities that stretch across Windows, OS/400, MVS, Linux, and even rarer operating systems.
Or simply because you want to get work done and are curious about whether Rexx might fit your situation better than the scripting language you're using now. All of these are good reasons to set aside a morning and introduce yourself to the oldest "personal programming language".
