perlfaq
Wednesday, July 9th, 2008The perlfaq comprises several documents that answer the most commonly asked questions about Perl and Perl programming. It’s divided by topic into nine major sections outlined in this document.
Where to get the perlfaq
The perlfaq comes with the standard Perl distribution, so if you have Perl you should have the perlfaq. You should also have the perldoc tool that let’s you read the perlfaq:
$ perldoc perlfaq
Besides your local system, you can find the perlfaq on the web, including at http://perldoc.perl.org/ .
The perlfaq is an evolving document and you can read the latest version at http://faq.perl.org/ . The perlfaq-workers periodically post extracts of the latest perlfaq to comp.lang.perl.misc.
You can view the source tree at https://svn.perl.org/modules/perlfaq/trunk/ (which is outside of the main Perl source tree). The SVN repository notes all changes to the FAQ and holds the latest version of the working documents and may vary significantly from the version distributed with the latest version of Perl. Check the repository before sending your corrections.

Lingua::EN::Syllable & Lingua::EN::Fathom

This module analyses English text in either a string or file. Totals are then calculated for the number of characters, words, sentences, blank and non blank (text) lines and paragraphs. Three common readability statistics are also derived, the Fog, Flesch and Kincaid indices. All of these properties can be accessed through individual methods, or by generating a text report. A hash of all unique words and the number of times they occur is generated.

Perl Vector object on large arrays of numbers.
Thursday, May 15th, 2008http://cs.marlboro.edu/code/perl/modules/Math/Vector/Vector.html
Vector - a perl scalar reference to a fixed packed array of doubles with arithmetic operations on the scalars, implemented in C.
A perl Vector object for fast mathematical operations on large arrays of numbers. Unlike perl arrays, a Vector contains only one data type whose size is fixed at its creation. Internally, a Vector stores its data in a single block of memory.
