Perl is a preferred scripting language which is that is used to make different web-oriented applications, which includes CGI scripts. One of the attributes that differentiate it from various other programming languages is the employment of modules - batches of Perl code which perform predefined jobs and they are universally accepted. In simple terms, instead of creating tailor-made program code to make something or pasting tens and hundreds of lines of code inside your script, you will be able to "call" a module that is already available for this specific job and use only several lines of program code. Consequently, your script shall be executed a lot faster because it'll be smaller. Employing modules will also make a script easier to edit because you'll have to search through much less code. If you intend to use Perl on your website, you have to ensure that the needed modules are available on your server.
