The document discusses the future of Perl as a programming language, highlighting its similarities to C, interpreted nature, and methodologies such as variables and control structures. It details Perl's connections to shell programming, its compatibility with markup languages like HTML and XML, and the significance of the Comprehensive Perl Archive Network (CPAN) with contributions from over 12,000 developers. Despite some challenges with Perl 6, Perl 5 remains a competitive language alongside Python and Ruby.

1. Future of PERL
in IT
2017

2. Perl is a script programming language, which has a lot of similarity in
syntax to “c” language. Perl is an interpreted language which can be
assembled before execution in “c” code/bytecode. Once perl is compiled, it
is as fast as any other compiled “c” program.
Definition

3. The structure of Perl comes from “C” language. Perl is pretty much
methodological in nature which retains :
1) variables,
2) expression,
3) Control Structure,
4) Subroutines, etc.
Structure of Perl Scripting

4. • Perl is broadly connected to Shell programming
• Perl has built in a number of functions which provides tools that are
majorly used in Shell programming
• Perl works with HTML, XML and other markup languages
• It supports Unicode.

Here are a few IRC channels that offer support for the language.

7. One more important and crucial part of Perl is CPAN. CPAN or
“Comprehensive Perl Archive Network” is a repository written in Perl
programming language with over 12,000 contributors. The major role that
Perl Cpan plays is to help the programmers which are not included in Perl
Standard distribution.

8. Perl is such a programming language which makes a pretty good
combination for writing code. Even though there was a problem with Perl 6,
But Perl 5 has come back with multiple time release now. Perl is a good
programming language and is nowhere less than python or Ruby.
