THEPERLDATASTRUCTURESCOOKBOOK

This is a cookbook of recipes for building up complex data structuresin perl. It has been extracted from a much larger and moreexpository document to be published in pod format and included withthe standard perl distribution. The goal is to provide cookbook-like,cut-and-paste examples of the most often used data structures inperl. Think of the recipes as a quick reference guide and theexpanded versions as tutorials.

The PDSC currently has these parts:

• General Tips: recipes or expanded version
• Lists of Lists: recipes expanded version
• Hashes of Lists: recipes
• Lists of Hashes: recipes
• Hashes of Hashes: recipes
• Heterogeneous Records: recipes
• Recursive Data Structures: (unwritten, but you might consider looking at the Patricia module and its test driver for a sample of this.)
• Objects: (unwritten)
