Description

Perl, one of the world’s most diffuse programming languages, was born out of the need to resolve the creator's dissatisfaction with what were at the time standard data-parsing solutions. Indeed, since the 1.0 release in 1987, Perl has been heralded for its powerful parsing capabilities features that are further enhanced through the thousands of Perl extensions made available through CPAN (the Comprehensive Perl Archive Network). Pro Perl Parsing begins with several chapters devoted to key parsing principles, discussing topics pertinent to regular expressions, parsing grammars, and parsing techniques. This material sets the stage for later chapters, which introduce numerous and powerful CPAN parsing modules, and provide an ample supply of example applications. Table of Contents Parsing and Regular Expression Basics Grammars Parsing Basics Using Parse::Yapp Performing Recursive-Descent Parsing with Parse::RecDescent Accessing Web Data with HTML::TreeBuilder Parsing XML Documents with XML::LibXML and XML::SAX Introducing Miscellaneous Parsing Modules Finding Solutions to Miscellaneous Parsing Problems Performing Text and Data Mining
