Green Tea Press Green Tea Home Page Learning Perl the Hard Way by Allen B. Downey Do we really need another Perl book? Well obviously I think so, and here's why: I want a book for people who already know how to program in another language, but don't know Perl. I want a book that gets through the basics as quickly as possible. I'm sick of reading about the precedence of operators; I want to know how to do the fun stuff. I want a book that emphasizes good programming style in Perl. Many of the Perl programs I have seen are written in a quick-and-dirty style; I wanted to see if the style I have developed in other languages can translate. In many Perl books, object-oriented programming is treated as an optional feature for advanced programming. I wanted to bring it closer to the center of focus (although I am anything but an object-oriented bigot). In presenting Perl features, I tried to find examples that are interesting in their own right, and that encourage the reader to explore Perl's features. This book is a work in progress. I have some ideas about what will go into the next few chapters, but I am open to suggestions. I am looking for interesting programming projects that highlight some of the moderately advances features of Perl, like inter-process communication, the Perl/tk interface, or one of the infinite number of modules on CPAN.

Table of contents 1 History 2 Usage in Printing 2.1 Traditional Printing 2.2 PostScript Printing ... 6 External links History The concepts of the PostScript language were seeded in when John Warnock was working at Evans and Sutherland , a famous computer graphics company. At that time John Gaffney was developing an interpreter for a large three-dimensonal graphics database of New York harbour. Gaffney conceived the Design System language to process the graphics, very similar to the Forth programming language In Evans and Sutherland asked Warnock to move from the San Francisco bay area to their main headquarters in Utah , but he was not interested in moving. He then joined Xerox PARC to work with Martin Newell. They rewrote Design System to create JaM (John and Martin) which was used for VLSI design and the investigation of type and graphics printing. This work later evolved into an expanded system known as Interpress After watching Xerox sit on Interpress, as they had with many of their other technologies, Warnock left with Chuck Geschke and founded

73. PostScript Is A Programming Language postscript is a programming language. Updated Wednesday April 26th, 2004. In A postscript program is a sequence of objects. When http://www.cs.usfca.edu/~parrt/course/652/labs/postscript.html

PostScript is a programming language Updated: Wednesday April 26th, 2004 In the last lab you explored a very conventional interpreterone that emulates typical computer architecture with memory, a stack, and instructions that manipulate them both. To avoid having to do register allocation when generating these instructions (which we did by hand), we used instructions that operated on the stack rather than in registers. The syntax was fairly simple and fixed: .decl x main: ; x = foo(20) const 20 call foo store x halt There was no way, for example, to introduce a new byte-code instruction and then use it. You can in fact see the above instructions as keywords in a very low-level language. When you see halt , you know precisely what that means. The interpreter knows nothing of symbols, the assembler actually translates the symbols to physical addresses before execution. The byte-code interpreter really is simulating a traditional CPU. Today we will explore another interpreter architecture, again based on stack operations, but one that has no keywords! I am referring to PostScript , a page description language, created by Adobe Systems circa 1985. PDF (Acrobat) files are essentially just compressed postscript files, so postscript is an actively-used programming language. It is worthwhile learning how its interpreter works and how to code a little postscript to impress your friends. In fact, one project that I may do in the future is to build a little compiler that generates postscript and, to run your program, you have to send the generated code to the printer (or use

75. PostScript: A Computer Language postscript is a highlevel programming language. If you open a postscript program with a word processor or editor, it may look like this http://www.prepressure.com/ps/whatis/PSlanguage.htm

PostScript: a computer language PostScript is a high-level programming language. The fact that it is a computer language means that it has its own vocabulary and grammar that are used to create a list of instructions that tell a computer system what to do. As with all computer languages, the slightest deviation from the well defined conventions of the language results in an error message and a computer system that refuses to do anything at all. If you print a job to a PostScript device and a network glitch causes the 'showpage' command to arrive as "shopage" at the output device, the system will happily generate an 'undefined' error message and refuse to print your job, even though it has already processed your entire page and the 'showpage' command is simply there to tell the output device that it can start outputting your masterpiece. PostScript is a high-end programming language, which means that even mere humans can still look at the instructions and understand what they mean. If you open a PostScript program with a word processor or editor, it may look like this: It can take a while to understand what the above gibberish means, but you can learn to make sense of it. Of course, this will take years and by the time you are that proficient in programming, your youth will have passed, your computer screen will be more important to you than anything else in the world and the opposite sex will remain a complete mystery to you for the rest of your life (although I am willing to admit that I don't know how to program and can't make much sense of women either.)

76. L-systems In PostScript Lsystems in postscript. Although postscript can be used for programming crazy things, such as computing prime numbers, it can also be used for graphics. http://www.cs.unh.edu/~charpov/Programming/L-systems/

L-systems in PostScript Although PostScript can be used for programming crazy things, such as computing prime numbers , it can also be used for graphics. The nice thing about PostScript, is that it's not just a way to describe images, but to actually build images, as it has the full power of a programming language. So, it allows you to write small programs that make the printer compute an image (and, incidentally, print it). I've always been fascinated with the Dragon Curve . One of the first program I ever wrote was a Pascal program that drew it. The Dragon Curve, like all fractals, is highly recursive. Interestingly enough, my Pascal program was not, as I understood nothing about recursion at that time. (It seemed to be just a complicated way to program simple things like factorials or GCDs.) I wish I could dig up that program today. It must have been a remarkable piece of junk. While in California, I found on the web a PostScript program that draws the Dragon Curve. It intrigued me enough to actually make me learn PostScript just to understand the program. But that didn't help me understand the algorithm. Although by then I had a better understanding of recursion (the Towers of Hanoi had enlightened me years before, way more successfully than factorials or GCDs), I was still unable to understand how this program, which relied on two mutually recursive functions and rotations of 45 degrees (all angles in a Dragon Curve are right angles), could draw a Dragon Curve.

77. Prime Numbers In PostScript This leads to the kind of programs you would expect in Pascal , C or Lisp , but recently I decided to learn bits of postscript . http://www.cs.unh.edu/~charpov/Programming/PostScript-primes/

Prime numbers in PostScript Every time I learn a new programming language, my first piece of code is a program to compute prime numbers. This leads to the kind of programs you would expect in Pascal C or Lisp , but recently I decided to learn bits of PostScript PostScript, as a language designed for graphics, has all the arithmetic needed to compute prime numbers. Not surprisingly, it's rather easy to write a PostScript file that prints prime number tables, with the particularity that the printer computes the primes Here is such a file. It computes the primes between 2 and 9973, but you can edit the file to compute larger tables. What is probably more interesting is to combine PostScript's graphics ability with prime number computations. A long time ago, I saw in a book a picture looking like this (I think it was in a book by Martin Gardner): In that picture, called a Ulam's spiral, natural numbers are placed along a squared spiral and a dot is printed for each prime number, like this (for a mysterious reason, I decided to start my spiral with 1 instead of 0; please don't tell Dijkstra): If you zoom in the center of the previous picture, you actually get something like this (use the mouse to see the numbers and the lines of the spiral):

79. 15-462 Postscript Tutorial postscript is a programming language for page description (text graphics). Here s a minimal postscript program to draw a line segment %! http://www-2.cs.cmu.edu/afs/cs/academic/class/15462/web.97f/assts/ps.html

Brief Postscript tutorial for 15-462 This is a tutorial written to help with the homework 2 problem that involves Bezier curves in Postscript. What you need to know about Postscript for the assignment Postscript is a stack-based language. That is, instead of saying "1+2" as in C or "(+ 1 2)" as in lisp, you say "1 2 add" you push 1 and 2 on the stack, the "add" operator pops two items off the stack, adds them, and pushes their sum on the stack. That's why Postscript looks backwards: operands always come before operators. You probably won't need to use Postscript's arithmetic, conditionals, looping, or procedures for this assignment, however. Your "programs" can be straight line code. (If you find that you want to see more, there are more complete tutorials available). Here's a minimal Postscript program to draw a line segment %! 144 72 moveto 288 216 lineto stroke showpage On UNIX, run the program "gs" (ghostscript) and cut and paste the above into its standard input. Try it now! It should create a window and draw a line (if you get an error message "Cannot open X display" then try running "setenv DISPLAY :0" and try again). Note: don't paste into the window that pops up, but the window in which you typed the "gs" command. Postscript's units are points (72nds of an inch), which explains the funny large numbers in the code above. If we call (0,0) the lower left of the page and (8.5,11) the upper right, the above will draw a thin line segment from (2,1) to (4,3). Or send it into the standard input of the UNIX printer spooler "lpr" and it should print this on paper to the default printer (whatever your shell variable $PRINTER is set to).
