Perl Language

Perl is a high-level, interpreted, general-purpose programming language originally developed for text manipulation. It borrows many features from C and Shell script and is used for system administration, networking, and other applications that involve user interfaces. It was initially developed by Larry Wall in 1987 as a scripting language to make report processing easier and is implemented into the C programming language. Perl refers to the Perl5 version through 2019, when it was redesigned as a sister language, Perl6, before it was altered to Raku in October 2019.
