What is This Class About?

1. Writing better programs

   • They are the "Low-hanging fruit"

   • They're easy to find and to fix

   • Extensive knowledge of Perl features is not required

3. It's not about clever tricks

   • Often we can improve the code a lot by using a better algorithm

   • This class is for the days when you can't think of one

   • You don't have to be clever to write good code
