I was wondering if anyone can point me to newbie-type tutorials on any of
the following (including but not limited to which perldocs I can read):

        - Definition of 'lexical' and 'canonical'
        - Differences between 'my' and 'local'
        - Good overview of packages and namespaces
        - How to build modules
        - Effective re-use (building subroutines for
          efficiency and portability)
        - Why do I '@_ = shift;' on subroutines?

I already have:

        - Learning Perl
        - Perl in a Nutshell
        - Teach Yourself Perl in 21 Days
        - The obvious: perldocs, CPAN, etc.

I'm not so good at grasping abstract data, I learn better by building,
breaking, and fixing until I get it right. Thanks in advance for any
pointers, especially for tutorial-type info with program building exercises.
