These will often point out exactly where the trouble is.</p> <h1 id="DESCRIPTION"><a class="permalink" href="#DESCRIPTION">#</a>DESCRIPTION</h1> <p>Perl officially stands for Practical Extraction and Report Language, except when it doesn&#39;t.</p> <p>Perl was originally a language optimized for scanning arbitrary text files, extracting information from those text files, and printing reports based on that information. It quickly became a good language for many system management tasks. Over the years, Perl has grown into a general-purpose programming language. It&#39;s widely used for everything from quick &quot;one-liners&quot; to full-scale application development.</p> <p>The language is intended to be practical (easy to use, efficient, complete) rather than beautiful (tiny, elegant, minimal). It combines (in the author&#39;s opinion, anyway) some of the best features of <b>sed</b>, <b>awk</b>, and <b>sh</b>, making it familiar and easy to use for Unix users to whip up quick solutions to annoying problems. Its general-purpose programming facilities support procedural, functional, and object-oriented programming paradigms, making Perl a comfortable language for the long haul on major projects, whatever your bent.</p> <p>Perl&#39;s roots in text processing haven&#39;t been forgotten over the years. It still boasts some of the most powerful regular expressions to be found anywhere, and its support for Unicode text is world-class. It handles all kinds of structured text, too, through an extensive collection of extensions. Those libraries, collected in the CPAN, provide ready-made solutions to an astounding array of problems. When they haven&#39;t set the standard themselves, they steal from the best -- just like Perl itself.</p> <h1 id="AVAILABILITY"><a class="permalink" href="#AVAILABILITY">#</a>AVAILABILITY</h1> <p>Perl is available for most operating systems, including virtually all Unix-like platforms.
