Perl is a widespread web-oriented computer programming language, that's used to create CGI scripts and various apps. It is really convenient due to the fact that you don't have to generate the same program code again and again so as to have some action executed several times, instead you'll be able to apply modules. They are pre-defined subroutines or sets of activities which can be called and executed within a script. This means that, you can add just a reference to a given module in your program code rather than using the entire module code again and again. In this way, your script will be shorter, thus it shall be executed more rapidly, not mentioning that it'll be a lot easier to maintain and modify. When you want to employ a third-party ready-made Perl script rather than creating your own, it will probably need particular modules to be present on the hosting server.
