Perl is a well-liked scripting language that's used to make different web-oriented apps, such as CGI scripts. Among the features which differentiate it from alternative languages is the use of modules - batches of Perl code which execute predefined tasks and they're commonly accepted. In simple terms, rather than creating custom-made code to make something or pasting tens and hundreds of lines of code inside your script, you'll be able to "call" a module that is already available for this particular task and use only a few lines of code. In consequence, your script shall be executed a lot faster since it'll be smaller. Using modules will additionally make the script simpler to modify considering that you will need to browse through a smaller amount of code. In case you wish to use Perl on your site, you need to make sure that the necessary modules can be found on the server.
