Robert Pratte Robert Pratte has recently returned to the exciting land of startups after spending time as a developer and architect in both academic and corporate worlds. In addition to writing about Perl, Mr. Pratte enjoys developing software, playing music, and working toward completing his Ph.D. in English. Logic Programming with Perl and Prolog Perl isn't the last, best programming language you'll ever use for every task. (Perl itself is a C program, you know.) Sometimes other languages do things better. Take logic programming--Prolog handles relationships and rules amazingly well, if you take the time to learn it. Robert Pratte shows how to take advantage of this from Perl. [Dec 15, 2005] Parsing iCal Data Perl's suitability as a glue language allows you to connect two applications that wouldn't normally communicate by translating their data files between formats. It's especially nice when these are open file formats. Robert Pratte shows how to parse iCal data files--as used in Apple's iCalendar program--and visualize them using the open source Dot graphic package. [Aug 18, 2005] |
