@Navneeth Thank you for the kind words! There’s no need to write “A Byte of Perl” because there is already Simon Cozen’s Beginning Perl (available as free PDFs) which was the original inspiration for me to write A Byte of Python

I was actually thinking about requesting you to write A Byte of Perl since you seemed to refer to it and make comparisons with it in the Python book so often. But after listening to your ‘interview’ that you posted, I dropped the plan — you are obviously busy with the start-up now.

@The_Other_Swaroop : Whoa! All hail Knuth. You can’t possibly be comparing it to that man

@The_Other_Swaroop Huh? Even the first two books could have been a set of Dummies, but they weren’t . If a quality level can be strictly adhered to, I don’t see the problem.

@Karunakar That’s a great idea, but where do I put out a call for such a person

@Jigish Hehe, sorry to disappoint!
