Extreme Perl An Evolving Book about Extreme Programming with Perl. Copyright © 2004 Robert Nagler. Extreme Programming ( XP ) is an agile software-development methodology. XP helps you remain light on your feet by avoiding unnecessary baggage and by incorporating feedback continuously. Programmers work and rework the code in XP projects. All this working and reworking requires a stable base and good tools. An XP team is expected to follow 12 simple practices, converging towards four core values: communication, simplicity, feedback, and courage. Perl is a dynamic, object-oriented, interpreted, applications programming language with a full complement of security features, syntax-directed editors, debuggers, profilers and libraries. Perl and XP were invented in the trenches. Neither Perl nor XP were designed in the ivory towers of academia. Both XP and Perl were developed to solve a specific problem, and quickly so that Kent Beck and Larry Wall would keep their jobs. XP is the organizer in the Extreme Perl marriage that complements Perl, the doer and fixer. XP's role is to keep Perl from fixing the car when the kids need to be put to bed. XP gently guides Perl to do the right thing for the customer.
