Hey all!

As a recent graduate seeking a junior developer position, I received an invitation for a job interview which included a Perl coding exercise. How can i make my code better? Additionally, are there recommended best practices for documenting my progress on this exercise? I never programmed in perl, so bare with me. Thanks a lot!!

here's the task:

- read the data from a .csv file

- store data in one hash

- outputs the data as HTML, sorted by company and within the company by name

here is my code:

#!/usr/bin/perl use strict; use warnings; use Text::CSV; my $csv_file = 'Bewerbungstest.csv'; open(my $fh, '<', $csv_file) or die "Could not open file '$csv_file' $!"; my $csv = Text::CSV->new({ binary => 1 }) or die "Cannot use CSV: ".Text::CSV->error_diag(); $csv->header($fh); # Hash Wert my %data_hash; while (my $row = $csv->getline($fh)) { my $pid = $row->[0]; # PID as key my $company = $row->[1]; # Company name as key my $last_name = $row->[2]; # Employee last name my $first_name = $row->[3]; # Employee first name push @{$data_hash{$company}}, [$pid, $last_name, $first_name]; } close($fh); # Sort the company names alphabetically foreach my $company (sort keys %data_hash) { @{$data_hash{$company}} = sort {$a->[1] cmp $b->[1]} @{$data_hash{$company}}; } # HTML Output open(HTML, '>', 'output.html') or die "Could not open file: $!"; print HTML "<html>\n"; print HTML "<head>\n"; print HTML "<title>Employee List</title>\n"; print HTML "</head>\n"; print HTML "<body>\n"; print HTML "<h1>User Liste</h1>\n"; print HTML "<table border='1'>\n"; print HTML "<tr><th>PID</th><th>Company</th><th>Last Name</th><th>First Name</th>\n"; foreach my $company (sort keys %data_hash) { foreach my $entry (@{$data_hash{$company}}) { my ($pid, $last_name, $first_name,) = @$entry; print HTML "<tr>\n"; print HTML "<td>$pid</td>\n"; print HTML "<td>$company</td>\n"; print HTML "<td>$last_name</td>\n"; print HTML "<td>$first_name</td>\n"; print HTML "</tr>\n"; } } print HTML "</table>\n"; print HTML "</body>\n"; print HTML "</html>\n"; close(HTML); print "HTML file erfolgreich generiert\n";

I have inherited some perl scripts that I've generally been able to edit well enough with my knowledge from other languages, but I need to make a change that has me stumped.

The user wants the output that happens from this loop to be reversed.

for ($nn=0;$nn<=$range_max;$nn++) { my $range=sprintf("%02d",$nn); $sum_of_A += $A_EACH_RANGE{"$range"}; $sum_of_B += $B_EACH_RANGE{"$range"}; printf("\"\",\"%s\",\"%s\",\"%s\",\"%s\",\"%s\"\n", $scale[$nn], commify($A_EACH_RANGE{"$range"}), commify($B_EACH_RANGE{"$range"}), commify($sum_of_A), commify($sum_of_B)); } 

So I figured all I had to do was start the for loop at the end like this:
for ($nn=$range_max;$nn>=0;$nn--) { 

Then I realized there's some cumulative math going on in the loop, which means the sum of everything needs to be at the top now instead of the bottom.

Now I'm stuck, I've made a few attempts like pushing it into an array so I could have the option to output in forward or reverse, but all my attempts just hang with no warnings or errors.

I figure there's a more elegant solution but my Google-fu hasn't helped.

Randal Schwartz is guest on Flosss Weekly 765, mostly for Dart, but he also talks quite a bit about Perl.

One of the interesting management of Dart is that they have people assigned to work shifts to triage and respond to issues so that requestors can get immediate feedback that at least someone saw their issue. I'll let him tell the rest of the story, but it's a good one.

Hi,

I am using Template::Mustache in a prooted Debian in termux on Android.

It works fine, however it produces this annoying warning:

"Flock not available: 'Function not implemented': continuing in unsafe mode".

As far as I can see it ultimately comes from Path::Tiny when slurping a file.

I have tried to get rid of it with "no warnings" but that did not do the trick.

So how can I suppress this warning?

Hello everyone, I'm new to Perl and I'm currently writing a script to handle a repeated call of a sequence of commands (currently using the ` operator to evaluate them) to generate a dataset. As the generation takes a lot of time, i would like to find a way to do a clean interrupt in the middle in case I need to shutdown, so I set up a sigint handler to exit the loop. However, the Sigint also interrupts the command and I would like to avoid that. Since I don't really have control over the command's code, is there a way to block the sigint from Perl to prevent it from reaching the evaluating command?

So, I was imagining some sort of debug thingy, where one would insert debug commands into code, like with two ##es like critic or even straight Perl as with Data::Printer. But these wouldn't render on stderr but to another output. A tmux layout on another shell would then listen to these output and display whatever comes from the executing code. Like some kind of display socket.

It would render in a log like way, but also tui like, say htop, kind. How, in gross terms, and with which libs, could this be done?

Hi all.

I'm currently working as a PHP Developer, and I want to learn something new, because I've been developing in PHP for 7 years.

My current tech leader is a super senior developer with around 25 years of experience developing software, and he said his main programming language is Perl, and he worked with it so many years and so many projects, also he said he could teach me Perl in an advanced way if I wanted to.

So i have this opportunity to learn Perl from a professional with a lot of experience.

The only thing stops me, is that I know that Perl jobs are not that common, at least not as PHP jobs.

But something that motivates me is learning a new technology and apply it.

I know there are a lot of JS and Python jobs, but I don't really like those languages, I would prefer Java or C#.

This is my situation, should I invest this time into learning Perl if I want to expand my market opportunities?

Greetings!
