  • "This Book Was a Joy to Read. It Covered All Sorts of Techniques for Debugging, Including 'Defensive' Paradigms That Will Eliminate Bugs in the First Place
    Perl Debugged By Peter Scott, Ed Wright Publisher : Addison Wesley Pub Date : March 01, 2001 ISBN : 0-201-70054-9 Table of • Pages : 288 Contents "This book was a joy to read. It covered all sorts of techniques for debugging, including 'defensive' paradigms that will eliminate bugs in the first place. As coach of the USA Programming Team, I find the most difficult thing to teach is debugging. This is the first text I've even heard of that attacks the problem. It does a fine job. Please encourage these guys to write more." -Rob Kolstad Perl Debugged provides the expertise and solutions developers require for coding better, faster, and more reliably in Perl. Focusing on debugging, the most vexing aspect of programming in Perl, this example-rich reference and how-to guide minimizes development, troubleshooting, and maintenance time resulting in the creation of elegant and error-free Perl code. Designed for the novice to intermediate software developer, Perl Debugged will save the programmer time and frustration in debugging Perl programs. Based on the authors' extensive experience with the language, this book guides developers through the entire programming process, tackling the benefits, plights, and pitfalls of Perl programming. Beginning with a guided tour of the Perl documentation, the book progresses to debugging, testing, and performance issues, and also devotes a chapter to CGI programming in Perl. Throughout the book, the authors espouse defensible paradigms for improving the accuracy and performance of Perl code. In addition, Perl Debugged includes Scott and Wright's "Perls of Wisdom" which summarize key ideas from each of the chapters, and an appendix containing a comprehensive listing of Perl debugger commands.

  • System Logging and Log Analysis
    System Logging and Log Analysis (AKA: Everything we know and hate about system logging) Marcus J. Ranum <[email protected]> 1 Welcome to my system logging and analysis tutorial!!! What we’re covering is a huge topic that touches on security, system administration, and data management. It’s a complex problem and it seems as if everyone has come up with their own approach to dealing with it. In this tutorial, we’ll cover a lot of concepts and tools for deploying them. In order to make this tutorial as useful as possible, don’t hesitate to ask questions at any time. Don’t hesitate to contact me in the future, if you have questions or need advice; just let me know you were at my tutorial and I’ll help you if I can! 1 2 This is one of the better “months” from my 2004 Sourcefire Security Calendar. You can see the entire calendar on: http://www.ranum.com/security/computer_security/calendar/index.html A lot of organizations are spending a ton of perfectly good money on intrusion detection systems and whatnot, but they don’t ever look at their firewall logs. If you think about it for a second, you’ll realize how absolutely backward that is!!System logs represent a terrific source of security data straight “from the horse’s mouth” - or from your devices, anyhow. 2 Philosophy Logs are just data... Processed and analyzed, they become information Put another way... If a tree falls on your network and it shows up in your syslog and nobody is reading it - you’re still squished 3 In military circles, the phrase “actionable intelligence” is an important term used to describe intelligence that has immediate practical importance.

    Half my life with Perl Randal L. Schwartz Monday, February 17, 14 1 My half-life with Perl Randal L. Schwartz Monday, February 17, 14 2 Who is this guy? . Jack of all trades—master of some . Programmer, writer, trainer, sysadmin, QA, networking, devops, podcaster, comedian... And thinner! Monday, February 17, 14 3 Intertwined . Perl culture . Stonehenge culture . Randal culture . A lot has happened . My memory isn’t as good as it once was . Consider this presentation “a work of fiction” . ... “inspired by actual events” . If you disagree with my “facts” - ... Call for Presentations for OSCON 2014 will probably be in January :) - ... then you can give your own damn talk . Thanks to Elaine and other contributors for the Perl History timeline Monday, February 17, 14 4 Bill Harp . Integral part of “Randal Culture” for nearly 30 years . As such, influenced Stonehenge, and thus Perl . Friend, business partner, marketing director, production assistant, wingman . Sadly, passed away. Bill Harp, 23 Nov 1967 to 22 Feb 2013 . I will miss him, and remember him until my final days Monday, February 17, 14 5 The child me: I like programming. I hate writing. Chose programming as a career at age 9 - Wrote code for PDP-8 FOCAL language “on paper” . Got access to HP2000 Time Shared BASIC via ASR-33 (uppercase!) at age 10 . Many hours of self-taught time with that terminal through the end of high school - Took over teaching BASIC from the “computer” teacher many times - Built an IMSAI 8080 for the school . Flunked middle-school English . Took Journalism in high school (for 3 years!) to avoid any real English exposure - Earned points for typing and page layout, not writing - Only serious story: “Randal assembles an IMSAI 8080 for the school” - As chief editor, I put it front and center on page one Monday, February 17, 14 6 Derailed to an unexpectedly good outcome .

Copyright It's the Magic that counts. -- Larry Wall on Perl's apparent ugliness 1960s 1960 Ted Nelson invents hypertext, known as the Project Xanadu. (Fast forward to 1999.) 1964 The concept of pipes connecting processes is suggested by Doug McIlroy at Bell Labs. See http://cm.bell- labs.com/cm/cs/who/dmr/mdmpipe.html. In Perl the same concept is seen in the default variable $_. 1968 Bolt Beranek and Newman, Inc. (BBN) awarded Packet Switch contract to build Interface Message Processors (IMPs). [HIT] US Senator Edward Kennedy sends a congratulatory telegram to BBN for its million-dollar ARPA contract to build the "Interfaith" Message Processor, and thanking them for their ecumenical efforts. [HIT] Douglas Engelbart invents the mouse while working at Xerox PARC. 1969 Unix is like a toll road on which you have to stop every 50 feet to pay another nickel. http://history.perl.org/PerlTimeline.html (1 of 39) [5/5/2001 5:11:28 PM] PerlTimeline But hey! You only feel 5 cents poorer each time. -- Larry Wall in [email protected] UNIX is born at Bell Labs. It was not until well into 1970 that Brian Kernighan suggested the name `Unix,' in a somewhat treacherous pun on `Multics,' the operating system we know today was born.
