Learn one of the oldest programming languages in the history with our collection of 24 books on Perl.
Famously known as the duct tape of the Internet today, Perl is now more that 25 years old language in the programming world. The programming language is used for a large variety of tasks like extracting information from a text file and printing out a report or for converting a text file into another form. But Perl provides a large number of tools for quite complicated problems, including systems programming. Perl is implemented as an interpreted (not compiled) language.
