Over 3400 Perl Modules
How can Perl modules be used to enhance and transform the Perl programming language?
Perl is a preferred scripting language which is employed to create various web-oriented apps, which includes CGI scripts. Among the attributes that distinguish it from other programming languages is the usage of modules - batches of Perl program code that perform predefined jobs and they are commonly accepted. In simple terms, rather than writing custom program code to do something or pasting tens and hundreds of lines of program code inside your script, you'll be able to "call" a module which already exists for this particular job and use only a few lines of code. Therefore, your script shall be executed much more rapidly because it is smaller. Employing modules will, in addition make a script easier to change considering that you will have to go through a smaller amount of program code. If you intend to use Perl on your website, you have to make sure that the mandatory modules are present on your server.
