Abstract This chapter describes the concept of Practical Extraction and Report Language (Perl), a programming language tailored with the help of shell or awk programming. The beginning of the chapter explains the early history of Perl and continues the exploration with the naming convention of this concept. The chapter explores the reasons of Perl's representation as the interpreted scripting language and the first postmodern computer language with illustrations. Furthermore, it discusses the role of code work in Perl and explains that programming with Perl emphasizes materiality conditions.

A theme we have been following through this book is "keep it simple" — that is, if there is a simple utility to do what you need, then use it. However, there will always be situations where you need something more heavyweight than what we have already introduced.KeywordsRegular ExpressionPerl ScriptSearch StringStandard OutputStandard InputThese keywords were added by machine and not by the authors. This process is experimental and the keywords may be updated as the learning algorithm improves.
