This presentation was created for a meeting of AZSage (see http://www.azsage.org). “I had been attending monthly AZSage meetings for over a year,” said Brett Berry, “and finally I had something worth presenting. The presentation was aimed at the Perl/Tk novice, and there was a whole lot of ad-lib comedy to keep the mood light, and the people awake!”

On Perl.com, we are presenting this as part of what we hope will be an ongoing series of articles, titled “Source Illustrated.” The presentation by Lee and Brett is a wonderfully concise example of showing annotated code and its result. There’s no running narrative; just a code-walkthrough that is a very interesting way to learn how these examples work.
