Perl is a well-known scripting language that is which is used to make various web-oriented apps, such as CGI scripts. Among the options which differentiate it from other languages is the employment of modules - batches of Perl program code which perform predefined tasks and they're widely accepted. In simple terms, as an alternative to generating custom code to make something or pasting tens and hundreds of lines of program code in your script, you are able to "call" some module which is already available for this particular job and use only several lines of program code. As a result, your script shall be executed a lot quicker since it'll be smaller. Using modules will, in addition make the script easier to modify as you will have to go through a smaller amount of code. If you wish to use Perl on your website, you should ensure that the mandatory modules are available on the server.
