Perl is a preferred scripting language which is designed to make different web-oriented apps, including CGI scripts. One of the attributes which distinguish it from alternative programming languages is the employment of modules - parts of Perl code which perform predefined jobs and they are widely accepted. In simple terms, instead of writing tailor-made code to perform something or pasting tens and hundreds of lines of code inside your script, you can "call" some module that already exists for this particular process and use just several lines of program code. Due to this fact, your script shall be executed much more rapidly as it'll be much smaller. Employing modules will also make the script simpler to change as you'll have to browse through a smaller amount of program code. In case you would like to use Perl on your site, you need to make sure that the mandatory modules are available on your server.
