This book is an unparalleled sneak-peek of what’s coming in the widely-anticipated Perl 6. It uncovers groundbreaking new developments in Parrot – the interpreter engine that will execute code written in the new Perl 6 language and the most revolutionary change in the language itself – Apocalypse 12 on objects. It also includes expanded coverage of Apocalypse 5 (regular expressions) and Apocalypse 6 (subroutines).
“Perl 6 and Parrot Essentials” is now open source. A limited preview of the second edition is also available via Google Book Search.
