Hi all,
While I continue to write in perl almost exclusively, my work has
changed slightly so that I need to get back into a fully compilable
language (I know about PAR, but its not wholly my decision). I used to
be quite proficient in C but its been so long that I've almost forgotten
it, and I'd prefer to be writing OO code, so I'm looking into C#.
Syntax I'll learn on the way - I've always found language syntax to be
the easy part of learning a language - but what I really need to have is
a kind of map of how to do things in C# that I currently do in perl - a
sort of translator if you will.
Some things I have found myself (Regular expressions, Hashes
especially), but there are other things that I use a lot in perl that I
still need to 'translate'. And I'm well aware there are some things that
won't easily translate (I'm expecting stringy evals to be near
impossible, but luckily I don't use them very often, and AUTOLOAD I'm
expecting to be quite difficult at the least too).
What I'm looking for is a reference/book/whatever that might have
information like this. Has anyone out there found such a thing, or know
of such a resource?
TIA,
MB
