With its highly developed capacity to detect patterns in data, Perl has become one of the most popular languages for biological data analysis. But if you're a biologist with little or no programming experience, starting out in Perl can be a challenge. Many biologists have a difficult time learning how to apply the language to bioinformatics. The most popular Perl programming books are often too theoretical and too focused on computer science for a non-programming biologist who needs to solve very specific problems.Beginning Perl for Bioinformatics is designed to get you quickly over the Perl language barrier by approaching programming as an important new laboratory skill, revealing Perl programs and techniques that are immediately useful in the lab ...

Perl::Critic::Policy::CodeLayout::RequireTidyCode(3pm)	User Contributed Perl Documentation Perl::Critic::Policy::CodeLayout::RequireTidyCode(3pm)

NAME
Perl::Critic::Policy::CodeLayout::RequireTidyCode - Must run code through perltidy. AFFILIATION
This Policy is part of the core Perl::Critic distribution. DESCRIPTION
Conway does make specific recommendations for whitespace and curly-braces in your code, but the most important thing is to adopt a consistent layout, regardless of the specifics. And the easiest way to do that is to use Perl::Tidy. This policy will complain if you're code hasn't been run through Perl::Tidy. CONFIGURATION
This policy can be configured to tell Perl::Tidy to use a particular perltidyrc file or no configuration at all. By default, Perl::Tidy is told to look in its default location for configuration. Perl::Critic can be told to tell Perl::Tidy to use a specific configuration file by putting an entry in a .perlcriticrc file like this: [CodeLayout::RequireTidyCode] perltidyrc = /usr/share/perltidy.conf As a special case, setting "perltidyrc" to the empty string tells Perl::Tidy not to load any configuration file at all and just use Perl::Tidy's own default style. [CodeLayout::RequireTidyCode] perltidyrc = SEE ALSO
