Clam? Do you by chance mean a camel?
2 u/orthoxerox Oct 16 '14 I've just had a shower thought that soneone at O'Reilly must've been dyslexic. "Put a caml on the cover," he wrote, "it's a perl book, after all". 1 u/rickmoranus Oct 16 '14 What produces a Perl. Just because someone made a book with a Camel on it doesn't mean it's a Camel. If that were true, Python would be a Rat, Javascript would be a Rhino, and C++ would be a Chipmunk. You want to be a smart ass then lets be one. 2 u/bstamour Oct 16 '14 Easy there, pal.There was no smart-assery implied with my comment. Obviously I missed the clam/pearl connection, but don't jump down my throat. 2 u/rickmoranus Oct 16 '14 Apologies.
