Perl is a preferred scripting language which is which is used to build different web-oriented apps, which includes CGI scripts. Among the features that differentiate it from many other languages is the employment of modules - parts of Perl code that perform predefined tasks and they're commonly accepted. Basically, as an alternative to writing tailor-made code to perform something or pasting tens and hundreds of lines of program code inside your script, you will be able to "call" a module that already exists for this particular process and use just several lines of program code. Therefore, your script will be executed a lot quicker as it will be much smaller. Employing modules will, in addition make your script much easier to change since you'll need to search through much less code. In case you would like to use Perl on your website, you need to ensure that the required modules are available on the server.
