How to Run Perl Scripts Easily

To run the Perl language, you can follow these steps:

1. To install the Perl interpreter: First, you need to install the Perl interpreter on your computer. You can download the Perl interpreter suitable for your operating system from the official Perl website (https://www.perl.org/get.html).
2. Create a Perl script file: Use any text editor to create a new file and save it as a Perl script file with the extension “.pl”. For example, you can create a file named “hello.pl”.
3. Write Perl code: Write Perl code in the Perl script file created. For example, you can write the following code in the “hello.pl” file.

#!/usr/bin/perl
use strict;
use warnings;

print "Hello, World!\n";

1. To run a Perl script: In the command line or terminal, navigate to the directory containing the Perl script file and enter the following command to run the script:

perl hello.pl

Alternatively, if you are using the default Perl interpreter path on a Unix/Linux system, you can simply enter the following command to run the script:

./hello.pl

1. View output: If everything goes well, you will see the output result “Hello, World!” in the command line or terminal.

These are the basic steps for running Perl language, you can write more complex Perl scripts and execute them as needed.
