NOTES: 

What is the best way to learn programming?  

Take classes. Read tutorial book.(My approach). Get the manuals and plunge in. Tutored by a programmer.  

The Programming Process 

  1.  Identify the required inputs, such as data or information given by the user. 
  2. Make an overall design for the program, including the general method - the algorithm - by which the program computes the output. 
  3. Decide how the output will print; for example, to files or displayed graphically. 
  4. Refine the overall design by specifying more detail. 
  5.  Write the Perl code.
