My book, Data Munging with Perl has been out for over two years, but the Programmer’s Bookshelf column in Dr Dobbs Journal has finally got round to mentioning it. And they like it. A lot. For example,
However the book is not really about Perl. Instead it is about data, and paterns that occur repeatedly when you are processing data. I write Python differently having read this book, and expect that the average Java or C# programmer would learn a lot from it as well. It is well written, informative, thought provoking, and will be as relevant five years from now as it is today. In short, what are you waiting for? Go and buy a copy.
That’s the kind of thing that can really make your day :)
