NAME VERSION DESCRIPTIONCan I get a BNF/yacc/RE for the Perl language? What are all these $@%&* punctuation signs, and how do I know when to use them? Do I always/never have to quote my strings or use semicolons and commas? How do I skip some return values? How do I temporarily block warnings? What's an extension? Why do Perl operators have different precedence than C operators? How do I declare/create a structure? How do I create a module? How do I adopt or take over a module already on C

NAME SYNOPSIS DESCRIPTION CONSTRUCTOR METHODS LIMITATIONS SEE ALSO AUTHOR COPYRIGHT NAME IO::Socket - Object interface to socket communications SYNOPSIS use IO::Socket; DESCRIPTION IO::Socket provides an object interface to creating and using sockets. It is built upon the IO::Handle interface and inherits all the methods defined by IO::Handle. IO::Socket only defines methods for those operations which are common to all types of socket. Operations which are specified to a socket in a particul

printf FILEHANDLE FORMAT, LIST printf FILEHANDLE printf FORMAT, LIST printf Equivalent to print FILEHANDLE sprintf(FORMAT, LIST) , except that $\ (the output record separator) is not appended. The FORMAT and the LIST are actually parsed as a single list. The first argument of the list will be interpreted as the printf format. This means that printf(@_) will use $_[0] as the format. See sprintf for an explanation of the format argument. If use locale for LC_NUMERIC Look for this throught pod is

${^RE_TRIE_MAXBUF} Controls how certain regex optimisations are applied and how much memory they utilize. This value by default is 65536 which corresponds to a 512kB temporary cache. Set this to a higher value to trade memory for speed when matching large alternations. Set it to a lower value if you want the optimisations to be as conservative of memory as possible but still occur, and set it to a negative value to prevent the optimisation and conserve the most memory. Under normal situations

connect SOCKET,NAME Attempts to connect to a remote socket, just like connect(2). Returns true if it succeeded, false otherwise. NAME should be a packed address of the appropriate type for the socket. See the examples in Sockets: Client/Server Communication in perlipc.
