Perl is a widespread web-oriented programming language, which is used to make CGI scripts along with various applications. It is really useful as you don't have to write the same program code again and again in order to get some task executed more than once, but you will be able to employ modules. They're pre-defined subroutines or groups of functions which can be called and executed inside a script. That is to say, you can include just a reference to a certain module within your program code rather than using the whole module code time and time again. In this way, your script will be shorter, thus it will be executed faster, not mentioning that it'll be much simpler to maintain and / or modify. If you would like to employ a third-party ready-made Perl script rather than creating your own, it will most likely need particular modules to be present on the website hosting server.
