Fra Perl FAQ:
What is Perl?
Perl is a high-level programming language with an eclectic heritage
written by Larry Wall and a cast of thousands. It derives from the
ubiquitous C programming language and to a lesser extent from sed,
awk, the Unix shell, and at least a dozen other tools and languages.
Perl's process, file, and text manipulation facilities make it
particularly well-suited for tasks involving quick prototyping, system
utilities, software tools, system management tasks, database access,
graphical programming, networking, and world wide web programming.
These strengths make it especially popular with system administrators
and CGI script authors, but mathematicians, geneticists, journalists,
and even managers also use Perl. Maybe you should, too.
Is it a Perl program or a Perl script?
It doesn't matter.
In ``standard terminology'' a program has been compiled to physical
machine code once, and can then be be run multiple times, whereas a
script must be translated by a program each time it's used. Perl
programs, however, are usually neither strictly compiled nor strictly
interpreted. They can be compiled to a byte code form (something of a
Perl virtual machine) or to completely different languages, like C or
assembly language. You can't tell just by looking whether the source
is destined for a pure interpreter, a parse-tree interpreter, a byte
code interpreter, or a native-code compiler, so it's hard to give a
definitive answer here.
Perl er lidt mere "brugbar" end til Inter/Intranet ting, som ASP mere
henvender sig til.
Perl er "oversat" til flere operativ systemer end ASP der afvikles p}
Microsoft Information Servere (prim{rt) under Win NT/2000. Jeg ved
faktisk ikke om ASP er oversat til andre OS.
