簡介:

內容簡介:
perl 是類UNIX系統管理的一個利器，維護系統如果不會Perl，最少也應該弄熟SHELL，兩者都能得心應手當然最好。
Perl是一種腳本語言。 最初的設計者為拉裡·沃爾（Larry Wall），它於1987年12月18日發表。Perl借取了C、sed、awk、shell scripting 以及很多其他編程語言的特性。其中最重要的特性是他內部集成了正則表達式的功能，以及巨大的第三方代碼庫 CPAN。
Perl原名pearl，但是在這個語言官方發表前，拉裡·沃爾發現已經有個編程語言“pearl”，便將這個編程語言的名字改成Perl。對於Perl 這四個字母，有一些解釋，包括充滿幽默感的“Pathologically Eclectic Rubbish Lister”。“Practical Extraction and Report Language”曾經出現在很多有關Perl的數據裡，包括官方的首頁。不過事實上這個長名字是後來湊出來的。它的名字第一個字母大寫（Perl）時就指這個編程語言，無大寫字母（perl）時就指它的解釋器。將Perl寫成“PERL”是不適當的，因為它並非一個縮寫字。
